Custom Memory Quilt

This is our second time featuring Alix from Mamaka Mills (first time HERE).  Alix does an amazing job creating custom memory quilts for families, and the stories are always amazing.  This is no exception, here she made four separate and unique quilts, all in memory of one father.  If you want to find out more about what Alix does stop by Mamaka Mills, check out her gallery and she even has tips and tutorials on creating your own memory quilts.  Thanks Alix!



Today I finished a very special commission for a family in Ohio
 in memory of their father, John.
John passed away and left his
 three beautiful children and 
his amazing wife, Becky. 
Becky contacted me earlier this year to make 4 quilts for them 
from his clothing so that the kids could have a piece of their dad 
with them as they grow up.
Here are some of the finished pictures of their quilts!

Notice that all of the kids have different pantographs and border/backing fabrics. 
This is a way the kids can have their different personalities visible in their own quilts while using the same quilting fabrics, which in this case is their father's clothing!
