Default I took a break from quilting
A friends cousin passed away this past summer and she asked if I could make a couple of memory bears for his mom and girlfriend from some of his clothes. Of course I said yes. I was given 3 T-shirts, a long sleeve shirt, a pair of flannel lounge pants and a pair of white swim trucks. This is what they got in return. They were fun to make but a little challenging at the same time.

Thanks for looking.

Excellent way to use your gifts to help those who are grieving. I keep choked up looking at stuff like this. I'm sure your labors of love will be appreciated far more than you'll ever know.
