(Part 1)—

2/5 special memory quilts for a very loved husband and father 🎗️💕

These are both throw sized. Perfect for wrapping around yourself or displaying as a memorial.

A couple special appliqués were incorporated in these quilts. Shirts are not limited to being only sewn into the top they can also be cut up and appliquéd down for a prominent feature.

Thank you for trusting me with your memories 💕

Another quilt off to its home! I never get tired of this…each quilt is unique. Different shirts, different colors and different layouts! This is definitely a favorite of mine 🤗. This is a Full size quilt and was almost too big for my handsome quilt holder to display! 😅

It is backed with flannel and bound with a fun binding to tie in all the color. The fun quilting pattern Quilting with Aunt B is perfect for these dance themed shirts.

Love making memories into something fun, special and cozy 😉

When quilts are too big to wash at home we bring our favorite books and snacks and take it to the laundry mat! 🧺🤗 New quilt pics coming soon!

Just finished this 14x14 t-shirt pillow! This pillow case can be removed for washing. I meant to take a video so you could see the zipper at the bottom…but a certain little boy distracted me and I only got pictures of the front and back😉

The last graduation quilt of the season is off! A couple fun things about this rag quilt… the parents each wrote a special message on a piece of t-shirt and had me incorporate it into the quilt. I thought this was such a neat and personal idea! For the back I picked out several different colored fleeces for a fun element that I thought went with the bright colors of these gymnastic shirts.

This was such a fun project to work on, thank you for letting me be a part of it!

Sorry for the floor pics…my handsome quilt holder was out of town on business, so I had to make do 😉

Here is a full size graduation quilt I completed last month. Like a dummy I forgot to take pictures of it, but my client provided this one for me! Thank you!

The “Madi Hami class of 2026” at the bottom is a custom appliqué. I used cut off pieces from the t-shirts for the lettering to make it tie in with everything!
