    Default Memory Quilt

    I've made this quilt for my step-daughter from my late husband's shirts.
    I don't know if it shows, but I used several pockets and front plackets from them.
    The sashing is made from material like his docker pants.
    I'm working on another one for my step-son before I make a quilt for myself.
    Thanks for looking.
