A quilt made from your child's clothing is a wonderful way to preserve the memories their clothing holds.
A baby’s clothes have so many special memories. Each piece of clothing holds a special memory - the overalls worn while learning to crawl, the blanket that was carried around until it almost fell apart, a favorite shirt, a bib, a bit of smocking or a pair of flannel sleepers. For those items too precious to part with, a childhood memory quilt is the perfect way to preserve the memories they hold and is sure to become a treasured family heirloom.
Children's memory quilts can include items of clothing, bibs, receiving blankets, onesies, pajamas, just about anything.

You should send a variety of clothing and colors, my only stipulation is that the clothing should be clean. Most clothing can be used with the exception of knitted items like sweaters and hats.
The amount of clothing varies depending on the size of the clothing and the size of the quilt. The more clothing, the better. If you don't have enough clothing, I can fill in with fabric. I will send all unused clothing back to you with the finished quilt.
All of my memory quilts are made with 100% premium quilters cotton in 2 or 3 colors that you choose and that compliment the colors in the clothing. The back of the quilt is made from a solid cotton to match the cotton in the quilt top.
The back of the quilt can be done in a cotton solid, print, flannel or I do offer minky dot for an extra fee.
I only use warm and natural 100% cotton batting. Machine quilting is professionally done by myself on a self guided long arm machine. I use a cotton thread on the back and a clear nylon thread on the top.
Double binding is machine sewn to the edge of the quilt.
Please convo me if you have any questions. Every quilt is creatively designed just for you to look similar to the quilt pictured.
This quilt and all items are original designs of redkloverboutique
