Love your quilt. I'm probably behind the times making this type quilt but the need arose and I can't wait to get started. My friend's friend died suddenly (and totally unexpectedly) of a heart attack while she was visiting him! Needless to say she was a basket case when she called me. I asked her if she had or could get any of his clothes for a memory quilt. The only thing she could get was a pair of his old work jeans. She wants to keep the holes intact, so I figure I can line the holes and stitch around them to secure them to show on the back. Will probably use flannel for the inserts. But first I am going to make myself a test quilt, lap size, with charm squares I have in my stash. I really appreciate all the help from everyone here on the board. Thanks again. Jan
