I like the last idea best, but I had to share. Probably the strangest quilt I was ever asked to make was a reversable quilt with t-shirts on one side, and her late husbands boxer shorts on the other, with a lot of photo transfers scattered throughout. I got it done for her, but for some reason it was just kind of creepy to me. I guess that warm and fuzzy feeling of sitting under a quilt and knowing it was some ones old underware, did me in! LOL!! None the less she loved it when it was done, and that's all that counts.
So I hope that brought a little laugh out of a morbid subject, and I truly recommend you not going my route if possible!! hehehe...
