Exmearden's quilt, finished today

Following on the creation of a quilt for exmearden bearing messages of support and love, I put up a diary to do the same for MsSpentYouth. In the commentary, the object of the next quilt of community support was clear.

moe99 has a frightening cancer diagnosis and is having problems getting his insurance company to take next steps in a timely manner. Thus, strength and support are required on two fronts – and a quilt making our support for moe99 tangible, something he can wrap himself in – has been requested. He’s on a journey where every bit of support will be very welcome.

There is something about the power of loving thoughts, expressed on something as soft and comforting as a quilt. They give twice -- when first expressed online and again when the quilt is received. The love in the messages never washes out.

If you would like to provide a short message for moe99 to be inscribed indelibly on the quilt, please put it in a comment below. If you would like to donate toward the cost of the quilt (likely to be in the range of $220 to $400 depending upon the number of messages -- I am gauging the cost at $4/message with a minimum of forty-four messages -- roughly the cost per message of sending a get well card) there is a link below.

Also note, if you would like to put in a message for MsSpentYouth it is not too late – click this link and leave a comment in her action diary.

Namaste.
