    My WIP is a memorial quilt, in memory of my girlfriend's son who passed prematurely at the age of 40.

    She gave me 36 of his favorite tee shirts. I am making a quilt as you go, with a different FMQ pattern on each. I will post a few of the squares here, and then will post the completed quilt when it's done.

    I have about 7 more squares to go, and then I can begin joining them.

    The 3 blocks that you have done so far, are just awesome. She will love it.

    Those blocks are simply amazing. What a great idea to do as a quilt as you go so that you can FMQ for each block.

    The mom is going to love and cherish it
