This is my story........

Wrapped in Love Quilts are memory quilts for all occasions with Hospice patients having priority. Wrapped in Love Quilts was created after I learned a friend of mine had terminal cancer. I knew how much she loved her family, especially her grandchildren. I didn't know what to say to her when I received the news of her cancer so I came up with a way for her to wrap the love of her family around her. I created a photo quilt of all her loved ones along with her grandchildren's handprints on the back. She called it her faithful companion. Sue Liston passed away on October 31, 2007. During the year 2008 I created many quilts for hospice patients and persons that needed a little extra love wrapped around them. As you view the quilts and read the stories about them, starting with Sue's(2008-#1), you will see what a rewarding journey I have been on. The quilts are a beautiful way to express love when words seem inadequate. Needless to say, I feel very blessed to be able to help others.

#14 Jessi Patrick

Jessi is a beautiful 13 year old girl that was living a good healthy active christian life with her wonderful parents until a couple weeks ago. She and her parents learned the devasting news that she has an aggressive form of leukemia. She will be in the hospital the majority of the time for the next 6 months having chemotherapy. The Patrick family attends the First Free Will Baptist Church of Hayesville, NC. The pastor's wife asked for a "happy" quilt to make her smile and feel the warmth of her family and friends around her.

July 6th...Jessi and her parents love the quilt. Please say a prayer for this family.

November 25, 2010...Heaven just got a whole lot sweeter. Jessi went home to be with Jesus. Please pray for her parents, Bud and Kathi.

January 11, 2011....Jessi lives on the hearts of so many. Her Mom, Kathi, has set up a beautiful blog. Her blog is truly inspirational.
