Heading home! 📦❤️

This memory quilt is packed up and on its way to its new home, and I couldn’t let it leave without a little show-and-tell.

Every shirt on this quilt tells a story: nursing school reunions, a Sedona girls’ trip, a Beatles tee, concert shirts, a dragon boat race, a retirement shirt that says “Not my problem anymore” (my favorite!), and so much more. It was an honor to stitch all those memories together.

The client chose a cozy minky backing and a 2" minky border in a bold red that frames all those colors beautifully. It’s as soft to snuggle under as it is fun to look at.

Wishing you many warm hugs from this one! 🧵

This little guy started out as a well-loved shirt and jeans. 💛

I love seeing the details carry over: the buttons, the stitching, the pattern someone wore for years. That’s what makes each bear one of a kind. It’s not just a bear, it’s a piece of someone you love.

Memory bears make a gift that lasts long after the wrapping paper is gone. To have yours ready for Christmas, please get your order to me by November 1st. 🎄

📍 Proudly made in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, with local pickup available. Not nearby? No problem, I’ll ship it to you.

Before the bear 🐻

This well-loved hunting shirt came to me recently. You can see the story in it: the soft, faded canvas, the worn edges, the camo sleeves that have seen a lot of mornings outdoors.

It belonged to a favorite uncle who was taken from his family far too soon. His niece brought it to me with a special plan: to turn it into a memory bear for his wife, her sweet aunt.

The holes won’t make it into the bear, but the character will. The faded, lived-in fabric and the camo are what make it his, and I’ll make sure they shine.

It’s an honor to be trusted with something so precious. A bear like this holds a hug, a memory, and a little piece of someone dearly loved. 💛

I’ll share the finished bear once it’s safely in her arms.

Now that it’s officially been gifted, I can finally share this one! 🐄💛

I had the joy of creating this baby quilt with the very sweet Bonnie Baker Clinton for her soon-to-be-born grandson, and congratulations to Clinton too! And really, who doesn’t love baby highland cows? That big-eyed little guy in his bucket of sunflowers melts my heart and wait until you spot the tiny cowboy and ball cap cutie in the corners! 🌻🦋

Soft, flowing quilting wraps every inch, and the backing and binding are baby blue minky, so it’s as snuggly as it is adorable. 💙 It’s such an honor to help turn a grandmother’s love into something her grandbaby can cuddle for years to come.

Have a special idea for a custom quilt? Send me a message, I’d love to hear about it! 🧵

Some gifts say “I thought of you.” A memory bear says “I’ll always hold on to you.” 🧸💛

Each bear is lovingly handmade from a treasured piece of clothing: a flannel shirt Dad wore every fall, Grandma’s favorite housecoat, a baby’s first outfit. The fabric you already know by heart becomes something you can hold and hug.

If you’re thinking about a bear for Christmas, now is the perfect time to start. Christmas orders are open through November 1st.

Local to Coeur d’Alene, Idaho? You’re welcome to pick up your bear in person. Out of town? I ship anywhere via FedEx.

Message me or email [email protected] and we’ll get started!

How your custom quilt comes to life
4. Delivery
The final step is always the sweetest one: sending your quilt home. Local clients can swing by for pickup, and for everyone else, it travels FedEx with a tracking number so you know exactly when to watch for it. I follow up afterward because I always want to know how it's being loved. 💕

3. Making the quilt
This is where the magic happens! The shirts get cut, pieced into a quilt top, and quilted on my longarm. Then comes the binding, which is the finishing touch that makes it feel like a real, cuddle-up-and-stay-awhile quilt. ✨

2. The proof
Before I cut anything, I make a proof so you can see exactly how your quilt will look. You can approve it as is, or ask for changes. I want you to love it before we start sewing. 🧵

Good morning from Coeur d'Alene, friends! ☀️ 🌄

Look what greeted me today. The sun came up gold and red over Canfield Mountain, and the clouds were tucked in low to the ground like a cozy blanket. I'll admit I stood there a while just soaking it in.

I hope your morning is wrapped in something just as warm. Coffee in hand? Tell me how you start your day! ☕💛

How your custom quilt comes to life

1. When the order arrives
Package day is one of my favorite days! 📦 Every time a box of shirts arrives, I let my client know it made it safely, then I get to work measuring and photographing each piece. Every shirt has a story, and I want to get to know them before I cut a single thread. 💛
