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

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

Lovely idea. How sweet of you.

What a cheery quilt - love the bright colors.
