America's 9/11 Memorial Quilts

Quilters Pay Tribute to 9-11 Victims, their Friends and Families

By , About.com Guide

America's 9/11 Memorial Quilts is a project initiated by Jeannie Ammermann to honor victims of the September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States. Jeannie's desire to memorialize those affected by the attacks has evolved into a huge project, and attracted volunteers from all parts of the U.S.

The non-profit group does not have a major sponsor, but small businesses have donated materials to make the quilts a reality. Other donations have come from individual members, along with their pledge to Never Forget.

The largest memorial quilt, America's 9/11 Memorial Quilt, includes the name of every person killed during the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

Be sure to visit the group's Web site for news about the project since this gallery was created.
