There is a Marine Mom looking for someone to make her a memory quilt. I told her it would be costly and she is ok with that.
Anyone able to make one? I KNOW I am not experienced enough to even begin to even think about doing one.
She is in Paris Tn.

I feel like a beginner also, when I see all the great work here. I hope someone is able to do it for her.

I would be happy to do it. Check your PM's.

I made 4 memory quilts for my boss' wife. Her best friend was a nurse, and she wanted a quilt from the scrub tops.


If you do end up making it, Elizabeth, there are so many ways to go. I just thought you might like to see what I came up with. At first I didn't know what to do with so many wild and varied fabrics.

Thanks for sharing the photos, I know there are just so many different ways to go. :D I've made two doubles (see my avatar for one of them), a twin, three wallhangings, and 7 pillows that were all using memory clothing.

I think it's really about what she would like and what kind of person her child was. I'm simply delighted to have the aid of my embroidery machine this time.

From what she said she wants a memory quilt of her son in the Marines.
