Smile Memory cushions
The love of my life, my darling husband, passed away last year mid March and I surprised our children and grand-children for Christmas with these cushions made out of shirts he used to wear <3
Thanks for looking!!!
I wish you all the very very best for 2018 <3

Very nice. I plan on making some from my Dad's shirts. I have made them in the past for others. So sorry about the loss of your husband.

These are wonderful! I'm so sad for you and can't imagine what it was like for you to make these precious momentos for your children. Love the saying on the patch. Just wonderful..
