Memory quilts complete
 

Back in November a coworker asked me if I would be interested in sewing some kind of memory quilt for her and her sister and mom with her dad's shirts and hats, etc. I told her I would try.... here is the results... I ended up making four quilts and they want one more.... I have never seen so many hats, t-shirts emblems... etc. This man was a truck driver, union man, race car fan, loving father and grandfather. Hope you enjoy seeing them.

Job well done!

Great job! Love that the Hawaiian 'flowerdy' shirt showed up in each one!

that was his swimming trunks....

Very nice! I didn't think of using hat logos or ties in a memory quilt. My husband was a truck driver and I have patches from his uniforms too. I saved some of his clothes for memory bears but I still haven't started them yet and it's been nearly 4 years. Maybe I will do 2 memory quilts instead. Thanks for sharing!

I made these memory bears for them at Christmas from his Jacket.

Love this!!!!!!!!!!

You did a great job on these quilts, love the shirt and ties, very special.

You're doing a great job. Nice quilts.

Thanks sdeaaz! I can't bring myself to cut up his jackets yet. My boys aren't as broad shouldered as my husband was so I don't know why I am keeping them. One step at a time I guess.
