Nona's quilt, lap size (SewingBAG)



This was another memory quilt for one of my sewing clients. "Nona" had a fantastic wardrobe, and many children and grandchildren who wanted this cozy way to remember her. A whole series of quilts was made from this selection of clothing, so a wider sashing was used to make the clothing items we had to work worth go farther. This one had some embroidered squares stating clearly who the quilt was made to honor.

Although this one was a "lap size" quilt, it was still quite generous. Each in this series was hand tied with a silky periwinkle yarn that matched the sashing fabric, and used polyester batting (likely 6 oz for this one.)
