    I have made several memory quilts for people using shirts, jeans, etc. Everyone is unique. It is a lot of extra work, but well worth it. Your quilt is great! I love the tags you left on!

    You did it and it's terrific. Love the labels too, I look forward to seeing the rest when you are done.
    I so agree - you did a remarkable job!

    They may have taken slightly longer, but the results are worth it. Love the addition of the labels too. Love the quilt.
