Memory Quilt

Karen made this memory quilt for a friend who lost her husband.  She used some shirts and added some extra fabric to come up with this treasure.

The love of music carried in to the fabrics and the quilting.  The focus print contains musical instruments and Karen selected the Musica pantograph to tie it all together.  The thread is a muted burgundy.

Karen always adds a little something extra to her quilts in the borders or the backings.  The little addition of one row of on point four patches really enhances the back of the quilt.

Add take a look at the corner block - she included a full pocket!  I had to adjust the patten of the pantograph to avoid the button, but what a cool addtion.
