    My best friend asked me to make 2 quilts for her daughters out of her dad's shirts. She loved them. When her mother saw them she asked if I had any fabric left to make her one too. I had just enough. I love that they love them. It's such a beautiful idea.

    I'm so sorry for your loss. These are very nice! I wish I was quilting when I lost my Dad. I would have loved to make one with his shirts. What a great gift for your family members.
