Monica from BB2 was on Thefishbowl.com today and I asked her about the quilt that her fans from TVCH made for her in memory of her cousin that was lost in 9/11. She says that it meant so much to her that her fans would do that for her and she said she had the quilt framed and was giving (or gave) the quilt to her godson whose mother it was that passed away. I remember when you guys did that for her and I thought it was such a wonderful gesture and I wanted to give you all an update.

I have to say that I always liked Monica from BB2. I loved the way she told off Nicole when she was evicted she did it with such class.

Thanks for this information Frogi. It is nice to think about the quilt again. It's nice to hear her talk about it!

Thanks, Frogi. Monica was a really nice person with class. I was rooting for her to win. I'm glad she didn't have this bunch in there with her.

That quilt is beautiful. You all did such an amazing job! I agree, Monica should have won that game. She remains one of my favorite players of all seasons.

That was so much fun, Fly worked so hard organizing that. Making squares for that quilt was where I got to know Flyonthewall.

This was truly one of TVCH's greatest achievements. And, my not being a woman, or knowing anything whatsoever about doing quilts or something, or anything at all like that, I was not involved in the least; however, I did observe, and I appreciated in my own way everyone who was involved, and I have to say I wish we had an easily accessible record of this amazing TVCH achievement, not only on the part of FlyontheWall, but of all those who participated and who may or may not still be a part of our current endeavours as TVCH 2005! This was an honourable tribute to someone deceased in the horrendous terrorist attack on the United States, but also a part of our reason for being, that of Big Brother US, and I'd hope it's got a proper place in the history of our community. In fact, if I could add as I am wont to do, if this is not an argument for a 'greatest TVCH hits' then I don't know what possibly could be such!

WOW! I didn't start watching BB till the following season with Lisa and Chiara, etc! I never knew about the quilt. Reading this thread about it brought tears to my eyes.

Yes, it was very moving to belong to such a group even if I wasn't able to contribute. The quilt was/is awesome!

I wasn't at TVCH during BB2. That was a really, really nice thing to do for Monica. I applaud everyone involved in that project. I thought Monica was great, she was so much more interesting to watch than all these people who will never say what they mean or how they really feel.
