Quick Mell write it all down while it's still clear in your head. Sound like a great memory quilt. Don't forget the pcs

What a beautiful idea

I hope you take some pictures to share with us because it sounds absolutely amazing and I think your Mom would be proud!

I think we all have a creative side even if we don't think we have the least little bit. It just takes something like this very special moment you had to bring it out in you. Sounds like a wonderful quilt is in the planning stages. Have fun going through the process and show us some pics when it's complete.

Oh what a wonderful quilt it will be, what a treasure chest your father has given, all those wonderful memories you have that is associated the the fabric, I look forward to seeing the quilt you create.

I believe your mom is guiding and helping you. You can do this with her help and it's going to be absolutely wonderful!!

Isn't it amazing what a piece of cloth can do to bring out those sweet memories. Give something to Juniper to cherish the rest of her life - and make certain the stories go along with the quilt.

ROFL!!! Yep, that was me, short-circuiting my brain again.

Thought I'd include some of the pics that inspired this memory quilt.

Juniper took a crash course on how to operate my camera. It was on a tripod set at her level. She had her own photo studio going for awhile and loved taking pictures of her and "Gwamma"

Here's mom showing Juniper how to sew an eyelet ruffle onto some sheets. Juni was SO excited!

Here's the main part of the Ranch house. It's recently been re-stuccoed and painted.

This is from Christmas 2010, just a couple of months after our trip to the Ranch. That's me opening a silly present from dad, with the assistance of Juniper, wearing her Christmas jumper. Note mom in the background in her jumper.
