Several years ago I made a quilt with this design for a little girl. Now, I was lucky enough to make one for her younger sister. This memory quilt is filled with onesies, pjs, and even a unicorn costume! Her mom picked out hospital textiles and a few other recognizable items for the back. Such a sweet family. Repeat customers make this labor of love even more extra meaningful to me. I'm going to admit that I'm a bit obsessed with this mini. I love the story behind it and I love the way it turned out. These handkerchiefs belonged to my client's grandmother and she contacted me to have them turned into a wall hanging for her mother. So...three generations of this family are involved in the making and receiving of this special keepsake. The majority of her grandma's hankies were solid white or cream colored with lace or embroidery. I used this to our advantage and created a design that highlighted the few colorful hankies without taking away from all the detail in the neutral hankies. This was done in time to be gifted for her mother's birthday. I hope she loves it. |
