WHAT IS A CUSTOM MEMORY QUILT?

Sandy makes custom quilts for significant life moments - for the start of a new family, the loss of a loved one, a graduation, other rites of passage, and major life achievements.

The custom memory quilts are made from clothing items, keepsake fabrics, silhouettes of symbols or photos, invitations, and announcements that have been transferred to fabric paper. They can commemorate births, anniversaries, weddings or special people and animals in our lives.

HOW TO GET STARTED

To start the process, Sandy will talk with you via email first and then phone – to learn more about the subject and person the memory quilt is being designed for as well as other preferences for the quilt like colors, shapes, and photos. If the quilt is being made from clothing, once Sandy receives the clothing she will develop several design options for you to choose from based on your thoughts/preferences. Once the design is confirmed, Sandy can add additional fabric to the clothing for visual interest. She will confirm design choices and progress photos with you throughout the process.   

What do you need from the client for the custom design?
Color Preference • Quilt Size • Clothing/Fabric Keepsakes • Photos • Design Approval • Time Frame

Our general time frame for a custom quilt is about 2-4 weeks (more time may be required during the peak holiday season – so submit your request early if possible.)
