Memorial Quilt for Tracy
« on: November 28, 2005, 21:27:27 pm »
After Tracy's passing last year, members of our website created quilt squares adorned with their child's name and birthdate.  They were joined together as a tangible memory of many of the children that Tracy whispered to.  Her daughters will each be gifted with a quilt.

Attached are pictures of the beautiful work.

Many thank you's to Matthew's Mommy, Webfoot, and Carolyn who worked on the quilts!!

The very last picture, the verse, almost had me in tears

Beautiful... Is there any need for help at this point? I'm new but would love to show my appreciation for all that Tracy and her philosophy have done in my life.

I contribured squares for the quilts when DD1 was only mths old and did see the pics of quilts ages ago, but now wanted to show DD and DH.
  Anyone know where the pics are?  :-\

Hi Julie,

A lot of pics were lost due to the site having troubles a while back.  :(

How wonderful you got to be a part of the quilt.

Maybe you could PM Laura (Diego's Mama) and she could email them to you or re-post if she still has them.

HTH,


A x
