3. TITLE: Planning and Laying Out a Memory Wall Quilt
DESCRIPTION: I had some of my Memory quilt wall hangings
with me last Nov. and several attendees wanted to have more info on making one
for themselves.
I will bring things to lay one out and demo attaching the
items etc. After the demo you can begin pla
nning your own project.
If you want to start working on one for
yourself....bring a 42" by 42" piece of print fabric for the back. A
plain 42" by 42" piece for the top. A 42" by 42" piece of
felt for the batting...Or thin quilt batting. A little dress, or romper, or pajamas,
etc. for the main focus item. Other items...Soft baby shoes, hat or bonnet, bib, undershirt, doilies,
old embroideries, old quilt pieces, ribbon, fabric to make Yo-Yos, pacifier,
rattle, a little toy etc. Whatever you want to add to your wall hanging.
My
wall hangings are made from clothes I bought at second hand stores but many of
you have treasured items that are perfect for this project.
I
will bring a pattern for little felt shoes for you to make if you don't have
any real shoes. If you are going to make shoes you will need a 9"X12"
piece of wool/rayon felt.
This
is a fun way to display those precious items in your home….or give the wall
hanging as a gift to the grown up "owner".
