night gown/house coat quilt
 
Several years ago someone posted a beautiful quilt made with her mother's night gowns and/or house coats. I am at that point now since mom passed away recently and I would like to make a quilt for my daughter who was her main caregiver. Unfortunately I cannot find the post with the quilt.

Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

i've looked up memory quilts but no luck so far.

I would find a block that creates a memory of my mom. For instance my mother loved her morning coffee. so I would find a coffee cup block. Maybe a block that reflect where she was born. Or do appliqués of her favorite flower.

So sorry for the recent loss of your mom.

I found this by searching. Not sure if it is the one you saw but the quilt is lovely & may give you an idea for your quilt. If you scroll to post #104 on page 5, she show you how she made the quilt.

That is really pretty one we! It looks so soft and huggable.

Thank you osewme, that is lovely but it is not the one I remember seeing. It is a wonderful option though.

So sorry for your loss.
This one was made by my nephews mother in law. It was made with my sister's pajamas.
