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.

#4 Sadie Murata

Sadie is the daughter of Jennifer & Ryan Murata. Julie Joyce is a very close friend of Jennifer and her daughter Abby is best friends with Sadie. Julie called for this quilt and it was made with Julie's description of Sadie in mind:
Sadie is the gentlest, sweetest six year old that I have met in a long time. Her tiny voice and her innocent smile will melt any heart upon introduction. The perfect little pixie with a whole lot of imagination. Loud and showy, Sadie is not. She is the child with her own quiet confidence that no one can shake. She loves to sing no matter where she is or what she is doing; this my friends, is when she truely shines. The child will belt out a tune that may embarass the heck out of any stickler, but she carries on indifferent to any adult hang ups. In Sadie's world she is center stage. In Sadie's world, "zippers are magical" and mac and cheese rules. In Sadie's world, sparkles are the most beautiful thing invented by man and those clothes she is wearing may make a fashionista nod in disdain, but Sadie can rock the stripes, polka dots and floral pattern nin one ensemble like nobodies businesss and dare you to turn that snarky frown, upside down. She is a talent like to other that just so happens to have cancer.
Please say a prayer for little Sadie. If you would like to follow her progress, send me an email and I will set you up on the Prayers and Wishes for Sadie site.
