MY sister -in-law died not quiet a year ago ,the family ask me to make a quilt from the dresses she wore, at first they only brought me the small prints and not very many so I thought a string quilt would be the best for that kind of fabric, later I asked for some solid and they gave me the ones you see in the quilt. I had it machine quilted but the lady did not do a great job, but then she did not charge a great deal either, I got sick while working on it, but it is finished now will get it to the family soon.(The black shames are mine just to help the picture look better)

You did a good job.I really like the small prints and the quilting looks fine to me.... My daughter had posted the quilts I made all the guys for Christmas, on her Facebook page. Also stating in the post, her mom did not do this for the public, I was just doing it for family. Then a young lady commented would I make a memory quilt for her?!...Makes one think, do they ever READ the post or just look at photos.

I think maybe they just skim through the post like you said looking at the photos.

what a lovely and wonderful thought, and a very special memory quilt , I love the idea the family asked to make this from her favorite dresses. I never would have thought of that, beautiful.
