I personally, saw the the plan on its horrific trajectory towards the pentagon from my Office window in Arlington that morning. Then the smoke not that far away. I still flinch at planes landing at National Airport when driving on the GW Parkway.
That day affected all of us in so many different ways, but today I want to share a way many are remembering it and memorializing it - in Cross Stitch.
Perhaps the most amazing (to me) way I found was:
American Stars
This is a non-profit memorial Doreen Lynn Saunders of hand-stitched stars on panels. Each star contains the name of a victim. When completed, the mural will be displayed at the 9/11 Memorial. I think this is a unique tribute, hand-made with love and honor and wanted to share what she is doing.
So many designers out there have created amazing designs. I am going to show some of my favorites that I have found, but this is by no means, all of them.
There are so many out there, and I love how inspiring they are!
So, today take a moment as we remember and maybe be inspired!

I adore all of them but United We Stand did make me want to cry.
