Memory Quilt - My Youngers Years

This was a project that took about 30 years to make.  My mom collected pictures that I drew when I was about 5 years old and she started to make a quilt, before she really understood the art of quilt making.  When I finished college we dug up the quilt again.  I told her that I really didn't like the gingum brown and white that she chose.  So we pick out other colours and incorporated photos of me and my brother.  It took days to take apart the old quilt and design a new one, but I'm so happy that we took the time to do it.  Now I have something to remember my young years and also the time that my mom and I took to make the quilt.
