    Default Memory quilts

    These are 4 memory quilts that I made for a woman I have known almost twenty years.









    Her husband died last November and she contacted me this spring about making quilts for her and her three girls out of her husbands clothes. I said yes, and got to work on these. I found inspiration many places online, but ultimately decided on these four designs.

    I was so worried how her reaction would be, but she LOVED them!! I am so glad I could do it for her.

    Thanks for letting me share.

    A fine memorial. I like your variety of settings too.
