AbbieAnne wrote a new post, Memory Quilt – indeed it is! 5 years, 4 months ago
I’m usually on UKQU designing Mystery Quilts, but I felt the need to tell you all about a recent personal make……..
Memory Quilt – indeed it is………Quite an experience to say the least….

How lovely. I know from experience how cathartic this form of grieving can be for you and the recipients.

What a lovely quilt. It’s amazing the thoughts that this raised in you, but at least they were all happy thoughts and memories. I’ve made a few memory / sentimental quilts recently but luckily I only knew one of the ‘late’ people and not that well, otherwise I think I would have been in floods of tears, as I shed a few tears making the quilts and I didn’t even know the person!
I think they are a lovely idea if it is what the recipient has asked for.-
