Thank you for sharing. I have a stash of each of my now grown kids' t-shirts that I am going to make into memory t-shirt quilts for each of them one of these days.

That's such a beautiful idea Michelle. I love the idea of re-purposing them instead of losing the physical memory!

Absolutely letting go takes courage, but it always opens space for something beautiful to grow.
