What are Memory Quilts?
In most cases Memory Quilts are made from clothes (read this in case you would like to learn how a quilt is made). For instance, from t-shirts of events you participated in, or from the baby clothes you used to dress your child in, or from clothes of a special person who is not present anymore. As long as fabrics remind you of something good, you could make a quilt of it.
If you are interested in having a Memory Quilt, but you are not able to sew, then why not let us look after it. Together we can decide what clothes to use and what kind of quilt you prefer. Your wishes will be taken into account, and our collaboration will result in the perfect memory quilt for you!
That sounds sood, how should we go about it?
Before starting anything, we’d like to get a feel of what occasion the quilt will commemorate and some specifics that may help determine the look and feel of the quilt. We have some standard patterns we like to work with, but we do make a very conscious attempt to customize those patterns to your specific quilt. We are not a factory after all. So, before we start working on your quilt, we will discuss what you want and what fabrics you have for us to work with. Then we will give you a quote with the scope of the work, planning and total cost; so you know what you can expect and when you can expect it.
