Title: Very Special Requst
Post by: pokey on February 15, 2011, 10:46:09 pm

 I have a very dear friend that I would like to cut these two picture for.  Mary lost these two children at the ages of 6 and 4.  They were going camping with their dad and his new wife.  They were struck from behind by a drunck driver killing them all.  These pictures are old but hopefully one of you brilliant pattern makers could do this for me.  I will thank you in advance.  I am also going to post Mary's video link.  She made this video last night in hope that it would reach even just ONE  person that drinks and drives and changes their ways.

What a tragic way to loose your loved ones. A nice idea of you, I am sure one of our talents will make you the pictures you need.

Haven't seen you around on the forum lately, pokey.  Glad you came back.  It's a wonderful thing you are doing for your friend.

Hi Pokey, I have made a few patterns in my time but for some reason this was the hardest not the actual making of the pattern but the story behind it, I had to stop half way through it brought tears to my eyes.
when I make a pattern and  staring at the photo my mind wonders about the subject, what they did or where they are and this one just got the better of me,What a waist of a couple of young lives just because some idiot thinks he can handle the beer, any way I gave your photo a go and I hope its ok........Paul

First, Paul, The pattern is absolutely wonderful!!!  I can tell that it was done with love and I am going to send Marry a link to this forum so she can read all the wonderful things that people say.  My heart breaks for anyone who looses a child.  Paul, you are a very special person to do this and I appreciate it more than you will ever know.  I feel bad I am not more active, but I check in on you all often.  I have to say that this is one very SPECIAL  group of wonderful people and God Bless you all!!!
