Default In Memory

I just finished these two quilts in memory of my wonderful nephew who passed away. He loved to bike. The one showing Brandon in the sky is taken from an actual photograph of him. I'm very pleased with how they turned out. They are going to be in a fundraising raffle for a scholarship fund.
Thanks for looking. Maureen in BC

My condolences on the loss of your nephew.

The first quilt - I love it! It has a psychodelic 60's look. What a great and productive outlet for your grief for your nephew. You are so creative!
