The Memory Quilt is Done!

It started out as a pile of clothes....



I turned it into a quilt....



I am honored to be trusted with all these precious clothes and memories.



I am really happy with how it turned out.



I hope the recipient is just as happy!

With a Little Help From My Friend

How great would it be to not only have a hobby that you love, but to be able to share it with your kids??? I have that! Sophia helps me from everything to pinning, sorting squares, picking out colors, and also keeps me company while I'm on my machine. I think it is so important to teach our kids to find what they love to do and give it their all!! What better way than by including them in your own passions????

Here we are deciding what order to put the squares in. She did great!



She is so content just sitting here watching me create something out of nothing.



She is a big help sewing. She turns the knob for me.



I love this and I know we are making memories that will last a lifetime!

Nursery Rhymes

I love nursery rhymes. A friend of a friend is making a really cool quilt out of patches from all over the world and I kind of invited myself to be a part of it. I decided that I wanted to do one from stories I heard over and over as a kid. After many failed attempts this is the one I liked the best!

The Peachtree Quilt

I was honored to be asked to make another T-Shirt Quilt for a marathon runner (and father to the person I made the other t-shirt quilt for) from GA. I had so much fun making this and to be honest, it was my saving grace in the middle of many two-year-old-tantrums to be able to just cut and sew while letting dad handle it!








It was requested to try to make a bag to keep it in and I thought, "What a great idea!" I like how it turned out, but I am not sure how the holes for the shoe lace will hold up since the shirts were a bit worn. :)
