In chat last week, I mentioned that I was working on a Memory Quilt. I saw this idea last year on a Simply Quilts show, and have been waiting to try it. I have the background quilt done, and now I'm playing with putting things on the quilt. I have an antique sewing theme, and asked my Mom to send me some of her and my grandmother's sewing items. I plan to add some antique items I've acquired along the way.

My dilemma is that Mom sent a couple of notes with various items (which is fantastic) but she wrote them on yellow legal pad paper in green ball point ink (not so fantastic.) I plan on adding a clear pouch on the back of the quilt to hold the laminated notes - I can't think of anything else to do with them. They won't scan :cry: .

Here's the quilt in progress:
