Beautiful and absolutely priceless.

I have a box full of my dear Daddy's shirts. One they I'll use them in a special quilt, too.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

That is such a perfect quilt. The pattern complements the shirting prints so well.

My dad lost his battle with cancer in 2013 and I still have some of his shirts stored away. I thought I could make something with them, but I just can't cut them up. It's not time yet. Maybe someday or maybe not.

I know your mom is going to love it.
