Memory quilts
I have been volunteered to make memory quilts for my siblings from my mother's clothing, I thought I had a plan and in the mean time have lost a brother. I have since come up with a bright idea of making the quilt from fabric that represents each of us. Dad smoked a pipe, Mom liked owls, I like cows, one lives in New Orleans, One is a nurse, one liked Doxies and another Raccoons. Thus I have 7 different materials to work with and am going to border the throws with a piano key border from Mom's clothing. My dilemma is I can't come up with any ideas for the blocks from the 7 different fabrics. I am planning on an off white for the background. Any ideas would be helpful.
