I am helping a friend make a small quilt out of clothes that were her Mother's and have special memories. We have ironed fusible interface to all fabrics and we are also including some blocks with pictures that have been transferred to the fabric. Perhaps getting the other perSon involved in the project or teaching them how to do it would be a good idea since they have more emotional connection. My friend remembers her mother with every stitch and likes having a new skills. We kept it easy just 5 inch squares sewn together.
