about the piece.
In Amber's words, "This is a square I painted for a quilt project.  A friend lost her child 8 or 9 years ago at 18 months by the child's grandfather accidently backing over her. She makes quilts for families who lost their children to similar accidents. This quilt was for Rachel's family.  Daisy is my daughter. I added the names of friends babies who have gone to heaven that I knew at the time. Many more could be added now."
