Today my thought are filled with the events of 12 years ago. Believe it or not, but I was at a quilting bee that morning. The events were already under way when we gathered at our usual time. As I remember, most of us were there, taking comfort from each other.
When I was in New York City, we took a tour and one of the places we visited was the 9/11 Memorial.
It was quite emotional--more than I even expected.
I made this quilt in 2007:
Older ones and more recent ones.
Have a great day!

great post...love the little quilt. I've never seen that fabric before either...what a great project for it.
ReplyDeleteGreat post and lovely quilt. I think that's what we quilters do to work through our emotions, I have said before "when times are good, I make a quilt; when times are bad, I make a quilt." I made two small quilts, one I have, the other I sent to a fire house in New York."

ReplyDeleteSept. 11 was one of those times that so many people know exactly where they were and what they were doing. I can't believe it has been 12 years....
I love your little quilt. It's touching, and so is your memories of this day. What a privilege to have been to ground zero. Yes, an unforgettable day.
