Late Term and Child Loss

My quilt made of my baby's clothes

***sig warning***

I had a bunch of clothes with my son's initials or name on them, and some others that he wore in the week or so he was home before we went back to the hospital.  I wanted to do something with them, so I had a quilt made.  I got it back today, and I LOVE it!  It will just be for me (and DH if he's lucky) to curl up in when I am having a particularly hard day, or just when I'm thinking of him (all the time really), but don't plan on having it out, just to make sure that it doesn't get messed up. 

I thought I'd share in case anyone else is looking for something to do with their baby's clothes.

    I love it! I've been considering doing something like that but have been hesitant to go through Lincoln's old clothes. I'm so glad you love it, that motivates me to find my strength and get to it.
  • I eventually want to do this as well. We just moved into our new house and so everything is still packed up. Im not ready to go through his things yet. I know I will have to eventually especially since we are TTC but it is so hard.
