That is awesome, and it looks like you gave a brief bio on each person. I'm in the process of making a memory quilt for my grandaughters graduation. I only have 21/2 weeks to finish. I'll post it when I'm done.

That is such a nice history quilt! I love all the pictures you have going around the center. Take a picture of your MIL when she opens this gem. She'll have tears.

Your work is amazing. Not only the quilt, but the special story about each person. Where did you get the tree fabric...or did you print it yourself?
