Just wanted to share with you two quilts that Renee and I recently completed. Renee and I have been working for about 6 months (maybe more) to create TWO photo memory quilts for Gena's children. If you don't know Gena's story here is a link to a previous blog. Renee and I poured over MANY pictures of Gena, Kenny, and the kids, and narrowed it down to a few that we liked the best. Sami's quilt is made up of blocks that Gena had started about 4 years ago intending on creating a quilt for Sami, and then time got away from her. We took the blocks, and added a border and some photos to make her quilt, and Ben's was made completely from scratch. We are so proud of them and how they turned out, and even more happy that the kids are so pleased with them. Sami showed hers off, and Ben spent most of the day cuddling with it. I hope that they will still cherish them as the years go by!! Enjoy the pictures of them!!
