Come Visit Me At My New Page!!

Hi Everyone!!!

As many of you know, I have been VERY busy this past year and even welcomed the birth of our son last fall!!

Because of the demanding schedule of a SAHM to two very small babies, I haven't been able to quilt in a very, very long time. I have been receiving some wonderful emails from you folks and I am happy to refer you to my friend, who is a fantastic quilter out of PA! So please keep the emails coming and I can help put you in touch with her for your custom quilt project!

In the meantime, come check out my new venture!!!

I am making one of a kind, homemade (by me!), recycled baby clothes and onesies!! I'm recycling cool t shirts and making some pretty bad ass baby duds. 

My new website it Joyaltee.com and you can contact me there!!

Also, my new facebook page is www.facebook.com/Joyaltee !
Come on by and visit me!!

Memory Quilt for Angela Made From Her Husband, Matt's Clothing

Here are the finished pictures of a memory quilt that I made for Angela from her husband, Matt's clothing. 

Matt passed away and before he did, he had asked me if I would make Angela a quilt from his clothing.

I used his t shirts, a Halloween costume, jeans, shorts, and some other articles of clothing that were obviously very well loved by Matt. :) 

It was my pleasure to make this for her and I hope it gives her comfort as time goes on.

Taking a Hiatus!

As of December 2012, I will be taking a hiatus from the Custom Quilt Business!

If you're looking to have a custom memory quilt made, send me an email and I can recommend someone who can craft that perfect project for you!

Please continue to check back here as I'll be posting pics of my latest projects and fun happenings!

Ciao for now! :)

Memory Quilt Made From Clothing, Curtains, Baby Clothes and a T shirt.

Here are some pics of the quilt I finished today for a customer in NYC.

She sent me some baby outfits, some really funky curtains, 

her mother's beautiful blue silk wedding dress, a t shirt and some other textiles!

This was such a fun quilt to make and I hope they love it!!

Memory Quilt Made From Ties, Shirts, Pants, etc.

I recently made this quilt for my friend Josephine's mother, Berkely, 

after her husband passed away. 

I made this quilt using some of Ken's ties, shirts, pants, etc.

I especially loved that a bunch of Ken's shirts had his monogram on them 

which I was able to save and incorporate into the quilt.

There was also a shirt that Ken had written his last name on, 

which I thought was extra special. 

I hope this quilt gives Berkeley much comfort when she's missing Ken. :)

Custom Memory Quilt Made from Clothing

Here are some pics of a custom memory quilt that I recently 

finished made from all 

sorts of clothing and  textiles.

I used a sweater, baseball hats, jersey knit shirts, jackets, dress pants, etc.

Memory Quilt for Ange :)

This is the beginning stages for a special memory quilt that I promised a 

friend of mine from high school, 

that I would make his wife, 

before he passed away.

Sadly, Matt passed away before I could get it made for her. 

It's been in my que since last October so it's about time I get to it!

Ange gave me lots of Matt's favorite T-shirts to work with from his company, as well as his jeans and other articles of clothing. 

So stay tuned for progress... 

Custom Memory Quilt Made From Clothing and Curtains!!

Well hello everyone!!

After a long baby break, I'm back!
Well kind of... slow and steady... ;)

I wanted to pop up some pics of my latest custom project for a family in NYC.

They sent me some great textiles including some curtains 

(Peter Rabbit and some funky patterned ones), 

some baby rompers, their mother's beautiful vintage silk wedding dress (in a powder blue color) 

and a t shirt! 

We've been laying out and reworking this beauty to make it 

just perfect for them to give to their mother!

Here are some pics in progress!

Custom Baby Quilt Made From Clothing & Onesies!

This is a quilt I just finished today from the cutest infant clothing and onesies belonging to 

my friend Ali's son, Corwin, who just turned two!

This quilt was made with all of his most memorable articles of clothing!

This is WAY better than keeping his old stuff stuck in a box, don't cha' think?

Now Corwin has his very own CUSTOM blanket! 

Geesh! Pretty cool!! :)

Corwin when he was just a little niblet!!
Here are some pics of his clothing in his quilt!
