Memory Quilts

“What does it take to create a piece that draws upon memories and tells stories using actual fabrics that are familiar to the client?  Will those articles be the handkerchiefs of the Deaconess Grace or will they be specially selected fabrics and photographs that are meaningful to a bride and groom?  Or will they be a collection of favorite dresses or nightgowns?  Constructing a quilt that meets specific criteria of a client or carefully crafts a story for the viewer is the type of challenge in which Creations with Quiltitude thrives!”

T-Shirt Quilts

“A t-shirt quilt shouldn't just display a bunch of t-shirts that are no longer worn.  A t-shirt quilt should try to capture the essence of the person who once cherished those t-shirts, and bring the spirit of the shirt owner to life in the quilt - tell their story.  Creating a unique story based on ‘the story the shirts tell me’ is quite a fun undertaking.”
