Memory Quilt Square


Hospice Alliance sent me a square of fabric with instructions to do with it as I wanted to represent my loved one in a Memory Quilt they are creating for display. I called to see if I could replace the fabric with Aida cloth so I could cross-stitch instead. They told me that would be just fine. So here is the block I created to represent my gram in the Memory Quilt for Hospice Alliance :)

Cross Stitch Card

My cousin Bonnie was having twins, so for her baby shower I decided to make a card. Instead of something typical, I decided to cross stitch their names on a piece of Aida cloth, then back it with card-stock and Lace. For the backside I used a plain piece of card-stock upon which I wrote my message to her and the babies. I had the perfect ribbon to create the hanger! Two spools, one with baby boy printed on it, and another with baby girl. What luck!

Birthday Bowl of Roses

My mom gave me this beautiful bowl of flowers for my birthday. My favorite color is pink, and this is pretty much my favorite shade of pink! And, yes, that is a Pez dispenser.
