Hug Quilt - James Byrd Jr.family (1998)
This group made a hug quilt for the James Byrd Jr. family about 8 or 9
years ago - (Mr. Byrd was the guy from Jasper, TX who was chained to a truck and dragged to his death). Does anybody know if there are any links online to pictures of the quilt? I know there was a newspaper article when the quilt was presented to Mrs. Byrd. TIA! Mickie |

Hug Quilt - James Byrd Jr.family (1998)
What a moving experience to go through those photos. Everyone does know
that if you click on any Hug quilt, you can see all the photos associated with it, right? This was a touching presentation, and I'm so glad the media was there. Karen, Queen of Squishies I am sure Sandy can help. (ragmop sandy that is) It is on Teri's hug quilt page too I bet.

Hug Quilt - James Byrd Jr. family (1999)
Howdy!
Thanks for the reminder. The blocks: http://members.fortunecity.com/sisks...uilt/photo.htm http://members.fortunecity.com/sisks...iliationquilt/ (thanks to Susan Sisk) The story: http://members.fortunecity.com/sisks...t/foreword.htm Many of the block-makers sent in a paper copy of their hands, Peggy transferred those to the quilt border so RCTQ handprints are on the quilt. I went out to Quinlan one day to visit w/ Peggy, she sat me down w/ the quilt & we both quilted some of those handprints onto the border. It was a delightful visit, and an honor to be a part of this project. R/Sandy On 8/7/07 4:40 PM, in article kF5ui.1833$Aj6.477@trnddc01, "Taria" wrote: I am sure Sandy can help.
