What a lovely quilt, and a beautiful idea. I have never heard of Passage Quilts, but maybe I can find time to make some myself. Thanks for sharing.

The Qulit is beautiful, and sorry to hear about your friend, I'm sure is very dear to you

How nice and thoughtful for all involved.

Deb - let everyone know that the quilt is beautiful! Besides that, you all made a special gift for someone special! I think you have a wonderful purpose behind the quilt gifts to the hospitals, homes, etc. Bless you all!
:-) :thumbup:

isn't simplicity the most beautiful thing??? love it

Very thoughtful, a great cause. Continues to show the
compassion of quilters.

This is a cheerful, hopeful quilt. And passage quilts. A beautiful idea.

That is a very beautiful quilt and i'm sure your friend will love it! On a seperate note, I've never heard of a passage quilt before, but it is a lovely idea.

It is a lovely quilt.

a beautiful quilt for a sad occasion

What a bright and cheery quilt. I'm sure she will love it:)

Such a thoughtful idea!

Beautiful quilt and lovely gesture.

Helbo, I'm sorry to hear about your friend.

Your friend will love it!

I really like the idea of the passage quilts. Very thoughtful and I'm sure very much appreciated by all who see it.

I love the bright colors and the quilting is gorgeous! It will definitely bring a smile :-D

What a wonderful, thoughtful thing to do. Thank you.

What a wonderful, thoughtful thing to do. Thank you.

This should definitely brighten her day and if God decides to take her; her passage will also be loving. God bless you for your good work!

Beautiful quilt and a very thoughtful tradition that needs to be spread world wide.

I have a very good friend with stage four ovarian cancer; she has been going through some pretty bad things, such as two brain surgeries in less that a month.
She is a cat lover and so when I found flannel that had cats on it, I had to have it. I made a good size lap quilt with a white flannel with a red toule design for the back. The cats were gray with red ribbon around their necks. Red in my friend's favorite color.
2 Doods, can you tell me what kind of quilt you made for your friend? I don't understand what you mean by a "ribbon quilt"

By the way, the Passage Quilt is a lovely idea and your group gets my thanks for making them. Keep up the very good and nice work. What a great bunch of ladies to put in their time to do this.

Bless you for doing these "Passage" quilts. Had not heard of them. You will brighten many days with your thoughtfulness!

What a beautiful quilt and so thoughtful!

That is a lovely quilt and what a wonderful thought. When my husband passed away I didn't know that he would be taken out in a body bag and it was a terrible shock to see that. Your group is doing a kind thing for the families.

Lovely quilt, lovely, loving gesture. Thank you for sharing this, as others my take the idea and run with it. You are a beautiful, thoughtful soul to do this. Bless you, and all who work with you...

What a beautiful quilt! I love the colors and all.
I love the idea of a Passage quilt. What a great way to honor someone.

Hmmm, I have a friend (well, a little more than an aquaintance, but not a close friend) who has cancer. Now I'm thinking of making one for her. . . thanks for the wonderful idea! I know her husband would appreciate it. How do you present these?

Oh how surprising. Phoning condolences to a friend today and she told me that she saw her brother taken from the nursing home . Said she thought of me because body was covered with a pretty quilt to give dignity not bl bag.
Knew the undertaker for many yrs but was trying to distract her sister at same time. Was north of Toronto , ON

(My husband was taken from house in body bag and very upsetting)
Will tell friend "Passage Quilt" She'll like that.
Coincidence or what !!! Beautiful string quilt.

What a super thoughtful idea. I hope the Covers are then passed on to a family member tho help them in the grieving process. I hope you gals receive many blessings from creating these.

Very sorry to hear about your friend! What a great way to show your care and concern! :thumbup:

I love all the colors! Great quilt, nice work of love.

Deb - Thank you so much for sharing about the passage quilt. My 96 year old mother is dying of cancer, and I hadn't even thought about when they remove her body!! I've got to make a quilt! How big do you make them?? Thanks again for sharing -- this will make a big difference to my family, and to all her friends at the senior apts. where she lives!!

Quilt is very pretty. What a wonderful thing you all are doing for your community.

You are angels. God bless you.

I made a quilt for friend that had cancer. He just passed on Sunday with his quilt in bed. I know that his family appreciated the quilt as it was a symbol that someone cares.

It is a beautiful thing that you are doing, providing comfort in a difficult time.

have never come across that before .I think it is a wonderful idea.

Yes, it is a lovely quilt. I understand your friend's feelings about the pink ribbon. It 's a nice sentiment until it's yours. I made a lap quilt for my sister to bring to her chemo sessions. It was a blue and pink (she loved pink) D9P. She didn't get to use it for very long (less than 2 months). That bright quilt will make your quilting friend's day. She is in my prayers.

What a wonderful idea!!! Would you mind sharing the dimensions of your passage quilts? Thank You!!!

Lovely idea. How sweet of you.

What a cheery quilt - love the bright colors.
