A celebration of life in 6 quilts

Memory Quilts are often made from a loved ones clothing.  These 6 quilts contain the work clothes, dress clothes, and play clothes of a dear friend of ours.  Each has some special memories for the recipient making each one original.  One for his wife and each of their children.  It has been a special journey for me to make these.  I trust they will be treasured by all who remember him.

LOVE your latest Quiltville Mystery Quilt! I saw your comment on the Quiltville e-mail list about using the wine bottle technique as a spool adapter. So nice to visit your blog - thanks for the eye candy and good ideas for "memory Quilts".
