My FIL passed away a bit over a year ago and I asked for his clothes and was able to make 20 lap tops for the kids and adult gkids; as well as pillow cases for therest of gk and ggk---had to add LOTS of fabs for this big project - used Scotts Plaid pattern- was quickest cutting, quickest sewing and best use of the fabs----I loved HAVING those clothes w/me and did struggle a bit giving them up but what a joy--most are being used as lap quilts, some as display, and some as focal point in rooms! Good luck- truely a labor of love----but not understood by many in the fam either- ouch. emptynest
