    Default Memory Penquin Quilt

    Pattern is named Penquin Party by Elizabeth Hartman

    My son passed from cancer 3 years ago and it took almost 2.5 years for my DIL to remove his clothes. I totally understood. My grandson picked out some shirts he wanted a quilt made out of. He is 11 now. I am very pleased with how it turned out and wanted to share.
    I will be making another one and the bellies will be made out of fun colored flannel.

    So sorry to hear of your loss. This quilt is so cute and your grandson will have such a nice memory of his Dad. Your grandson can hug this quilt and feel it is a hug from his Dad. You did such a wonderful job on the quilt
