From Lori’s Notebook

  • Carmen’s Merienda

    It is always bittersweet when previous clients get back in touch to request a memorial quilt in honor of an additional family member who has passed away.

  • Kathy’s Waves

    The ocean was a central and anchoring element in Kathy’s life.

  • Mark’s van der Rohe

    It’s not often that the clothing I receive for my memorial quilts so clearly reflects a person’s passion and life work.

  • Louisa’s Eclipse
  • A Tartan for Tasmania
