from blouses to blankets...


i just finished 3 quilt tops for a friend in my ward, Deborah Gaar. these tops are made from blouses that belonged to her mother... last Christmas i made quilts for my aunts out of summer dresses that my grandmother wore before she passed away... i think quilts are a great way to keep memories alive...

What a nice way to remember a loved one. My mom found some quilt blocks that had been done by my Great-grandmother after she passed away. She held onto them and finally made them into lap quilts for her sisters and mother. They all have really enjoyed them and looking at all the fabrics my Great-grandma used. A lot of the fabrics were from old clothes that she or my grandma and her sister wore.
