Anita’s Memory By: Sarah Foster, Michigan, USA
After accompanying my close friend in her death from cancer, I returned home with 2 boxes of her favorite WEARABLES. Using a CD cover as a guide, I traced and cut pieces from her clothing and sewed them together for the top. I used a sheet for backing & tied it with yarn. My 1st & most loved quilt!

Cheryl’s quilted jacket By: Cheryl, Illinois, USA
I made two of these jackets at the same time. One for me (pictured) and one for a quilting friend. I don’t know how to sew clothing, so, this was a real learning experience for me. I added the cuffs since I am tall. This was the 1st (and one of the few) things that I machine quilted.

colorful spring vest By: OrkaLoca, Italy

Flores Cloth Coat By: Deborah Cohen, Australia
This coat was constructed from a traditional hand woven cloth from Fores Indonesia. Because of the looseness of the weave it first had to be tie quilted for stability, then machine quilted. This was made in Arnhem land, Australia – isolation was the spur of creativity.

That Purple Thang! By: Lindy, Washington, USA
Quilt size? The size of vest I wear will go with me to the grave! So, this purple, teal and gold vest was made in my lifetime-which covers a LOT of years, ladies and gentlemen. But I still get compliments whenever I wear it. I wear a purple blouse under it and it spiffs up the casual jeans ensemble.

I want to win the Zippy Strippy by Atkinson Designs
I like the Path to the Civil War book on the first page. I live in KC and I love those KC Star Quilts!
I would make the Hushabye baby sleep sack. So sweet for a coming baby.
I like Anita’s Memory
So many wonderful options–very hard to pick just one. But, I might agree with you on the Pockets to GO. I would make them for my children to help organize their rooms. Good teacher gift ideas, too. And, my sewing room could use and update. And…well, you get the idea.
My vote goes to “Anita’s Memory.”
My vote is for Anita’s memory
I’ll join the ‘in’ croud and say that I too like the pockets to go pattern!
