    When my niece graduated from High School, my sister and I made her a memory quilt. Sis got a bunch of pics printed on fabric and stitched them down like a collage of pictures that had just been tossed across a table. I put borders on with appliques that were meaningful to Niece. It turned out pretty nice but it was weird not piecing something together.

    Oh man, what a fantastic idea! My sister is graduating high school this spring, I may think about appropriating this idea, if you don't mind? :3
