Memory Quilts


A couple of months ago my sister asked for my help to make some memory rag quilts out of JaKelles clothing for some of  her best friends she would have graduated with this past May. 
I have to say that as I cut into each piece of clothing I shed a tear. It was much harder than I had anticipated it would be. I remembered JaKelle as she wore the different tops and her PJ bottoms. 
The center square on the yellow and teal side contained her favorite saying: "If this isn't your castle then you're not my prince."
I felt her close as I put these quilts together. I hope these girls will cherrish them and always remember the sweet girl who wore them.
