A different take on a memory quilt

Don't forget to enter my fat quarter giveaway!



A fellow pastor's wife heard from a friend that I've been making quilts to sell. She asked if I'd be willing to make a quilt for her husband for Father's Day. I had exactly one week to get it done and to her, and I managed to do it!



This isn't my usual quilt, in case you didn't notice. You see, her father-in-law had passed away awhile ago, but her husband couldn't bear to part with his old sheets. He had them sitting in a garbage bag in the garage. Every now and then, one would get pulled out to use as a drop cloth for painting, but they were really just taking up space.

So she asked if I would use those sheets to make something of a memory quilt for her husband's Father's Day gift. Of course I would! These aren't sheet combinations I would usually choose, but they are special to the recipient. So, while it won't win any design awards, it will mean a LOT to a fellow pastor who's missing his dad.



Stayed tuned tomorrow for my annual "what we gave the fathers at church for Father's Day" post. :) Enjoy!
