Four years ago my 24 year old son told me to find something that made me happy. Two weeks later he died from a rare cancer. I miss him so much but have found quilting to be a healing, soothing thing for me to do. I am presently teaching myself to paper piece (thank you YOUTUBE) and plan to use the boxes of Mark's clothes to make a real memory quilt for me. I loved reading the suggestions here and I am sure they will be helpful.
