Quilt of Remembrance
 
2 Attachment(s)
Earlier on I had asked for opinions on what pattern to use for a stack of neutral shirts. This is what I came up with. She takes delivery of it today - hope she feels comforted.[ATTACH=CONFIG]545875[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]545876[/ATTACH]

Your quilt design is perfection. You've shown just how creative one can be with a stack of old shirts. It is going to be well-loved and much appreciated.

That is just wonderful. The dark sashing (navy? black?) is perfect. I also love how you incorporated some of the shirt labels. I too hope this brings her some comfort.

The perfect solution. The blocks are big enough to retain the character of the shirt fabrics.
