This is a very heart-felt and beautifully done (set of) project(s). So sad and so kind. These quilts will help them to feel closer to him and also to feel supported and connected to you in a time that feels isolating and dark.

My goodness. You have created treasured pieces from treasured memories in a true labor of love. I am astonished at just how many squares you were able to put together from so few shirts! You’ve made the Good Stuff here.

Oh this is such a caring bunch of work!

I was touched by your gesture. Then I read “7 year old” and my heart broke. These will be treasured I have no doubt.

Wow! These are beautiful, and what a tribute & way to treasure the memory of the husband/father.
I cannot believe you made so many so fast…fabulous idea. (Also, you must be a magician to harvest enough fabric from a half-dozen shirts!)

Rising above your own emotional feelings, you have managed to make some very meaningful quilts for this bereft family…they are all lovely and useful and I am sure will be a comfort to them all. The personal touches are the best…the hearts and the gift wrapping…I am sure more than one person here is teary eyed.

I gave them to her today, she was completely overwhelmed, there were many tears as she’s told us about each shirt and where they were when he wore it. It was emotional, but very very special.

Thanks all you lovely people for such kind words xx

Absolutely amazing. I am sure these will be treasured. I love the idea of putting the heart on the pillowcase as the holder of them. You are so sweet for doing this.

These quilts are so lovely, I think you are a wonderful friend to have made one for each family member. The kids will cherish these.

An ornament/s for the Christmas tree would be nice from the buttons. Then there could be something to remind them each Christmas he is with them.
