I love this idea! I lost my mom 5 years ago in sept. and it seems like yesterday. I don't have many of her clothes but I would like to do one with her pics some day. I have a whole cork board full of pics on my wall that I done for her funeral. I even decorate it with bows and garland at Christmas.

Thanks for showing the quilt. I am holding my "PopS" shirts to make a quilt. I told my mom I would let her decide what she wanted me to make but it has been about six months now and she just has trouble thinking of it. So I like yours. Maybe I will do something like that, except his shirts are not plaid. They are solid but with all kinds of designs. I forget what they are called but they are beautiful. Old cuban style shirts I believe. Maybe I will do a picture and see if anyone has ideas. Again thanks for posting your quilt. Good Idea!

sevencubs, Ahhhhh ! That is so awesome. You can see in her eyes that she absolutely loves it. I know it must have been hard for you to give it up, but the look on your moms face is priceless. Bless you :wink:

You are a sweet daughter. That is so nice of you to do that for your mom. I know she will cherish it, she looks like she loved it. Thanks for sharing the picture of her with it! :)
