Kids..not OT

Yesterday afternoon, my husband and I received a call that a friend of ours
had passed away suddenly. He was in his early 30s so it was very
unexpected. The saddest part is that they are expecting their first baby
any day now. This morning we were inthe car talking about it, and
myyoungest daughter, who is 8 years old, spoke up and said "Mommy, you need
to make them a baby quilt...With lots of hearts because without a Daddy,
that baby will need lots of extra love."

This sounds like time for a hug quilt..... if you make one, count me in for
a heart block. Just tell me what size.

Your daughter is precious, and right. Huge hugs to her from this
mommy/grandma..
If you need a heart block, please dont hesitate to ask.

count me if you need another heart also more than happy to stitch up a
little extra love for the bub

WOW...I appreciate the offers, but today, my girls and I dug into my stash
and pulled out a bunch of fabrics, then we sat down and went through all the
magazines and books I have. We settled on a pattern with bears and hearts
that we found in Keepsake Quilting catalog.. I'll start working on it first
thing tomorrow.

I just made a heart block for my brother's hug....and I would love to make
one for your friend also. Your daughters words brought tears to my eyes,
give her a hug for me.

Same here, I'll send you a block just say yes...
Think about the story the mom could tell the child later, not only did
one person love you but all these people loved you enough to give you a
piece of their heart.. so what do you say??

I mentioned it to my husband and he thinks the idea is fantastic. I've
never done one of these before, but have seen them posted. What do I do
now? Send my address to the newsgroup, or have people contact me privately?
