Her name was Mary and she was a lovely lady. I know this because she was my friend and my neighbour. I knew her for a lot of years so it was an honour for me to make these keepsakes for all the family. They are made from Mary's clothes and bedding.

Mary's Cushions
Recently I was commissioned to make 12 memory cushions for a family that lost someone very special.

Butterflies and feathers had special meaning in Mary's life so each cushion has an appliqued butterfly and feathers incorporated into the quilting.
The 4 large cushions........
and some of the smaller ones.
I thoroughly enjoyed making these and the family were delighted with their keepsakes.

The pillows are gorgeous. I love the idea of making pillows as a tangible memory of the person being thought of. Your design of feathers, hearts, and butterflies is delightful to look upon.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet remembrance to Mary; I'm sure they will savor your quilted treasures for years to come.

ReplyDeleteYou wouldn't have to do much advertising because it's a large, online community of online shops. Most are hand made but some are supply shops, like yours would be.
