What's the best way to approach our local hospital to see if they would want some of these made? I bet I would cry over the first few, but I love this idea and would like to work on it locally.

Your story is so very sad and yet so thoughtful. Bless you for making these tiny quilts that offer some comfort to the grieving parents. I too would like to send you some hugs, you are a special person to make these!!

I used to make similar items. I donated through a chapter of Newborns in Need. You can mail directly to Newborns in Need or see if they have a chapter in your area. They will also supply you with patterns for bereavement items.

Having lost three little ones in the trimester of my pregnancy, I would have loved to have one of these. I make hats for newborns at Cullman Hospital, but haven't seen these. If you have time and have a pattern for these or know where I can get one, I would appreciate a PM. Thanks and GOD Bless you.
