Nancy and Diane gave ideas and suggestions for making memory quilts and teddy bears. Below are teddy bears made using grandpa's shirts. Each grand child gets a teddy bear.
The next three quilts were made by Diane and her sister Karen Critchfield from Oakley, ID, from the shirts of Karen's husband who passed away 12 years ago at a young age.
These are the three kids' quilts, made for high school graduation over the last few years.
