    Default From shirt to wall hanging today.

    My father in law died this week rather unexpectedly (though he was chronically ill). We were cleaning out his home when I came across his plaid shirts (he always wore them). I had each of his kids pick a shirt so I could make each a memory wall hanging. I have the first done This morning this was a plaid shirt. (3 to go) The backing is from a sheet set he had, he loved fishing.
