Memory Items

These special keepsakes are made from 
clothing, pajamas, etc of your loved one(s). 

Memory Throws
$60 plus cost of backing fabric
(or you can bring your own)
These are NOT quilts. 
The top is pieced and sewn to a backing fabric.  I do tack the front & back 
together in a few places to hold them together. 
Most people like to use fleece for the back, but anything not too thick can be used.
My basic throw is about 47" x 69". I use rectangular pieces for these because you
can get more of that shape/size from pant legs & long sleeves.
I can make one with a different pieced pattern, but it will take more garments per throw.   
**********************************************
T-shirt Throws
$55 plus cost of backing fabric

The size of my t-shirt throws varies depending on the shirt sizes 
& the number of shirts you want to be used.   
This throw can be backed with a solid piece of fabric, or the backs of the shirts
can be pieced to make a backing.

Memory Bears


2 Color Bears
$50 (XS-L) and $52 (XL & XXL)

These bears can be made in 6 different sizes. XS-XXL. 
The XS is 8" tall (sitting) & the XXL is 16".
The XS size can be made with something as small as a newborn sleeper. 
This one is perfect to have made from a coming home outfit!
I call this my 2 Color Bear, but as you can see it can be made with only
 1 piece of clothes/blanket or 3 or more.
This one was made from a baby blanket that had the child's name embroidered on it. 
I arranged the pieces so his name would be on the bears chest.
**********************************************
One Color Bear

I also make a one color bear that is a different style. 
This one's arms & legs are floppy, so it doesn't sit up by itself.
This bear is about the size of the middle sizes of the 2 Color Bear & is $45.

Memory Pillows
$25-$30
Memory pillows are made from shirts. The pillow size depends on the shirt size.

**Please note that I do NOT make the sayings to put on pillows. **
A customer brought those when she brought me her shirts

Pillows made that include the shirt collar (tie or no tie) are $30 each.


Pillows made using button up shirts without the collar are $25 each.
                                        
Pillows made using T-shirts are $25 each.
