    Default Memory Quilt tops

    A friend asked me to make a Memory quilt from her husband's shirts. I finished her top and had some shirt material left and decided to surprise her by making two lap quilts one for each daughter. I have one more lap quilt to make and then I can get the quilting done. I hope she likes the design which was made from HST's. I chose a picture on Images in Google.com and copied the image. I purchased the blue mottled fabric since I didn't have enough contrast to only use the shirts. Thanks for looking!

    They are terrific. The blue fabric and the design you created really set off the plaids.
