Where It Starts
- The Gracie Jane Project
- As the creator of williamGEORGE products, I am constantly looking for ways to create things of meaning for others. The GracieJane Project is named for my niece who came into this world at 37 weeks, but only 3lbs 14oz. While she spent a very short time in a neo-natal unit, she was and continues to be a strong and healthy girl. As a the mother of a healthy from the start almost 4 year old, and new baby, I can't imagine the fear that must go with having a child in medical distress. It is my hope that The GracieJane Project will bring a little comfort to families in an uncertain time.

Beautiful baby. Love the b&w photos. Adds atmosphere to the story :)
ReplyDeleteawww what a great way to help with quilts.
ReplyDeletebeautiful idea and beautiful quilts! thanks for sharing!!
The baby who received the first GracieJane quilt at the neonatal unit was my granddaughter Madilynn (Maddie). My daughter was quite thrilled to receive the quilt it was a lovely gesture and something we will always treasure. Timing was perfect as we were just recovering from a down loop on the rollar coaster of miracles at the NICU. It was very comforting for my daughter and will provide Maddie with love and comfort through out her life. Your kindness is greatly appreciated
ReplyDeleteYou've reduced me to tears. My god daughter was born at 28 weeks and weighed 1 lb. 11 oz. She spent 12 weeks and 1 day in the NICU and is now a thriving, happy little 6 month old who weighs around 9 lbs. The work you do is beautiful and inspiring. I have been looking for a project to get involved in, and I think I've just found the perfect one. God bless you for what you do.
ReplyDeleteoh this post hits home with me! my first daughter was born at 3lb 12oz and spend a month in that very same nicu (that picture IS very emotional indeed!). they were amazing there. i will definitely keep my eyes peeled for a chance to donate to this awesome cause!
