This is the headline over a story on the BBC News website. The full story, with a picture of the quilt, can be seen here. The first four sentences read:
'A quilt marking the 20th anniversary of the Lockerbie disaster has been unveiled in the town. It took five women almost two years to complete the work depicting a tree shedding its leaves in the countryside. The falling leaves symbolise the 259 people who died on Pan Am Flight 103 while pebbles represent 11 Lockerbie residents who lost their lives. The tree roots convey the people of Lockerbie who strove to rebuild their lives after the 1988 atrocity.'
