Virginia Tech - Reema Samaha



Nell Benton created, and Susan Blair delivered this afghan to the family of Reema Samaha. They are having a celebration in her memory on June 23rd which would have been her 19th birthday.

Here is a really nice article about this young woman:

This link is a tribute - in the form of a slideshow containing pictures of her:

Currently two more afghans are being assembled - and we have yarn for more - if anyone is interested in contributing to this project, please let us know.
