Made using your chosen clothes and fabrics, I craft Luxury Memory Quilts in a patchwork style, to use as many of your cherished items as I can.
Whatever items of clothing you choose,Whether you’re using a bundle of baby clothing, a pile of children’s clothes or the clothing of a lost loved one, I will handcraft you a beautiful keepsake quilt with the prints, details and embroidered sections used wherever possible.
The memory quilt is fully lined and comes with a layer of wadding sandwiched between the patchwork and backing cotton layer for warmth and durability. It’s then finished off with two layers of topstitching and finally an edging of hand-sewn binding. To allow me to create your special memory quilt, simply tell me your desired size, your cotton colour and binding colour, then post your clothes to me and let me get creative for you!
My quilts comes in five sizes to suit a wide range of uses. All sizes are approximate and may vary slightly depending on the clothes that are used.
- Standard: 90x105cm (42 squares)
- Large: 105x120cm (56 squares)
- Single: 120x165cm (88 squares)
- Double: 165x165cm (121 squares)
- King Size: 210x180cm ( 168 squares)
To create your keepsake gift, simply tell me your preferred size, colour, binding and add personalisation if you want to add an extra finishing touch.
Please note, my memory blankets can be machine washed at 30 degrees, however, I highly recommend hand washing them in warm water and leaving them to dry on an airer or washing line.
What Clothing Should I Send?
The Luxury quilt can be made from a range of clothing, all stretch fabrics and thin fabrics will be lined, to ensure your quilt keeps it shape. I try my hardest to use items with images on however, this is not always possible.

If for any reason I believe I can’t do what is requested I will contact you before making.
