(I got a new laptop for Christmas so I can finally blog again :))
Just before Christmas, I received a special custom quilt order from a dear friend whose mother (Karen) passed away a few years ago. I have made two other quilts for this special family.
This time the quilts were to be made for Karen's three daughters.
I finished them back in December.
This beauty was made for Chrisann, my dear friend.
It, like all of the rest, are made from Karen's clothes.
Each quilt has a special label for each daughter.
This quilt is my favorite and is for Heidi.
The red and white are so perfect together.
All of the quilting was done by the AMAZING Stacy Simmons.
This cheerful quilt is for Jenn.
Many of these clothes were worn in Karen's last few weeks of life.
It is always such a special privileged to make a quilt for someone out of their loved ones clothes.
I really cherish the opportunity!
