Memory Quilts

I decided before Christmas to make a memory quilt for each of the girls from their Dad's old shirts.  This is Sadie's quilt.   The center squares are cut from his shirts; the border is just some pretty fabric I thought Sadie would like.  This picture was taken just before I finished hemming the blanket binding.
Maggie's is very similar; I got both quilts ready for Christmas morning under the tree.  
The girls liked them; I think they will really appreciate them as they get older.
I also am working on one for myself.  It has been a form of therapy for me in this grief process.
