  Veronica, can you please cover the following story with Global Voices Online?

  Srebrenica Memorial Quilt Project:
  http://srebrenica-genocide.blogspot.com/2007/10/support-srebrenica-memorial-quilt.html

  BOSFAM has launched the Memorial Quilt Project as a memorial to over 8,000 men, children (boys), and elderly who died during Srebrenica genocide. In turning the panels into a single quilt, the weavers are hoping to create a living memorial to those who were killed. They hope that others who lost relatives in the massacre will commission panels, and that the quilt will help them to connect to others who also suffered. Relatives can commission a hand-woven panel for $40 by contacting BOSFAM and/or The Advocacy Project. In addition, the organization seeks to promote ethnic reconciliation by opening its doors, and its looms, to both Serb and Croat women who suffered during the war.

  Thank you!
