The SUGAR Group's Memorial Quilts

Have you lost a beloved sugar glider? Has someone you know had a glider go to the Rainbow Bridge and you want to do something to help comfort them, but just don't know what to do? Unfortunately for us, gliders have a relatively short lifespan. The gliders that have touched our lives will remain in our hearts forever, but there is also a way they can be memorialized for others to see and for us to know that they will not be forgotten.

The SUGAR Group will be selling squares for the 2009 Memorial Quilt from Now - 06/15/10. The squares are $20.00 apiece and will be sewn together into a beautiful quilt which can be sent to and displayed at any glider gathering or special event. You can purchase a square by sending your money via paypal to sugargroup@hotmail.com. Be sure to include the glider's name and date of passing with your payment.

For those who would like to memorialize gliders who have passed prior to 2009, we are also selling squares at any time, in order to make more quilts for those gliders who were lost in various years. Once we have 16-20 squares, a quilt will be made and another one will be started. It's a sad fact that we outlive these precious creatures and many have lost their cherished furbabies. We would like to give everyone the opportunity to have their treasured memories put in a timeless piece of art to be shared by all.

The 2010 quilt is already being assembled and will be completed by March 1, but there is still time for you to get your squares to honor a glider that was special to you.

The quilts are displayed at any gathering that would like to have them displayed throughout the year.

The 2010 memorial quilt is already being assembled and will be completed by the RRRoundup in March.

However, there is still time to honor your own beloved glider on this year's quilt. We will continue selling quilt squares for the 2010 quilt until JANUARY 15, 2011 only. After Jan. 15, 2011, you will not be able to get your square onto the 2010 quilt.
So, if you would like to honor one of your babies who passed away in 2010, then be sure to purchase your square before that deadline.

As a reminder, each square purchased is embroidered with the glider's name and date of passing and then sewn into a beautiful quilt which is then displayed at various gatherings throughout the year.

As always, if you would like to honor a glider who passed away any time before 2010, you can purchase a square for the "random dates" quilt, which will be created once we have 8-16 names for that quilt.
