Our quilt guild is collecting Baby Bereavement Quilts for a local hospice. These quilts are made in matching pairs. One quilt is given to parents who suffer the loss of a baby before or after birth, while its mate stays with the baby...a small quilted bit of comfort at a very sad time in the life of a family. Because these quilts are mainly designed for premature babies, they are very small, only 18-27 inches. It almost takes longer to load them on the frame than it does to quilt them, so I got the idea to load them two at a time. It worked like a charm...I had two quilts finished in the time it would take to quilt one!

Great idea Susan! And it's neat to get a glimpse of your Juki too!
That makes sense, load once, quilt twice.
That is a good way to do it! Pretty quilts too.
What a wonderful undertaking. My friend lost a baby at birth. The hospital gave her a memory box. She charishes it to this day.
Smart idea doing two at once.
