THE BABY DOLL

looking for a meaningful memory for yourself, or a gift for someone special?

perhaps you have some baby clothes you can't part with or have sadly lost someone close to you and are unsure of what to do with their clothes.

we are all for passing on clothes and reusing as much as we can in our home, but sometimes there are some items we just cannot part with and that’s okay, but imagine you could be reminded of the memories daily instead of having them stored away in a box in the attic only to be glanced at when storing other items up there every now and then.

why not reuse them in a way that you can hold them close to you - and feel the memories every day?

made from your loved ones' clothing, memory quilts are the perfect way to display and treasure the precious memories of your favourite people.
