In Memory of...9/11


What were you doing on September 11, 2001 at 6 am PT? I was getting ready for work and almost dressed for work. I saw on the news that there was a fire in one of the twin towers and Matt Lauer was commenting that a plane had hit the tower. As we watched in the horror, it got even worse...another plane hit the second tower.

What a tragedy that pulled our nation together, and made us focus on what was reality...not something from a Hollywood film. I don't think anything in a Hollywood film would make a bigger impact on us.

This is a block I made for a 9/11 quilt called United in Memory
This link will take you to a facebook page that has blocks made by hundreds of quilters who made and then assembled each one to remember the victims of 9/11.

I got the dancer image from a Stampin' Up! set that had dancers. Melissa was a dancer, and one of the things that her bio had, was she danced through life......

Stampin Up! also had a stamp with a flag that we sold to raise money for the victims, over 1,000,000 was raised for this cause....

We will NEVER Forget...!
