Welcome to Memory Quilts by Molly
Memory Quilts tell beautiful stories through fabric! MQBM has been creating quilts since 2011! Shown here is my popular selling style and size quilt: the Modern Lap quilt. This quilt was made for a special graduate named Kaitlyn who ran track in high school. It is filled with her running shirts. Every MQBM quilt is an authentic quilt with expert sewing, expert long arm quilting, top of the line batting and expert binding! These quilts really do make the best gifts. Each one tells a beautiful story!

Quilt Updates:
MQBM is busy every day creating beautiful memory quilts, pillows, bears, and hearts! Fall is the time MQBM steps up production for the holidays! We are currently working on many holiday orders. NOW is the time to get your orders in for the holidays. MQBM books up fast! So, if interested in a Memory product, for any occasion, please don't delay.
Please know that MQBM authentic quilts contain: expert design using six styles, top of the line batting, expert long arming, and expert binding techniques. MQBM quilts are authentic quilts NOT blankets. Because of this they take a long time to make so please plan accordingly. Quilts are taking about 10-14 weeks to make. Pillows only take two weeks plus shipping. Bears take 3 weeks plus shipping.
If you are interested in a Memory Quilt, or t-shirt quilt, for any occasion, please contact me so I can get you on the schedule. Memory quilts really do tell stories beautifully through fabric. Many memorable garments were added to quilts this month, like Boy Scout neckerchiefs, beautiful wedding gowns, Army uniforms, pet clothes, ties, and even gymnastic leotards! Here are some other creative quilts in the works:
An Eagle Scout Quilt, neckerchiefs and all!
Tie Quits galore!
a queen size custom quilt made with homemade flannel nightgowns!
Many Grateful Dead quilts (the most represented band so far!)
A full size quilt made with soccer shirts
Many swimming and diving quilts, baseball and theater quilts too!

A One-of-a-kind Gift:
Many people call these quilts T-shirt Quilts. Yes, t-shirts are used in these quilts, but so much more can be added! Any fabric that has meaning to you can be used. Recently I have used overalls and suspenders! The more variety the better! Below is a list of items I have used:
long sleeve and short sleeve knit shirts,
golf shirts
men's or women's bathing suits
long sleeve, cotton, button down shirts
sweat shirts
flannel or fleece pants
all baby clothing
ties and handkerchiefs
cotton bed sheets
high school varsity letters, jacket or sweaters
aprons
boy scout badges and girl scout badges
baseball patches
canvas bags with nice logos on them
Memory quilts, or t-shirts quilts, are truly one-of-a-kind gifts! My quilts are premium, handmade quilts that are made using only the best fabric, interfacing, thread, batting and backing. Premium quilting techniques are used in the piecing of the quilt and the long arm quilting. My quilts are also generally larger in size than my competitors. They make great gifts for:
any graduation , whether it be 8th grade graduation, middle school graduation, high school or college graduation
birthdays or weddings
Christmas
any holiday
the completion of a sports program
The possibilities are endless!

MQBM has made many Memorial bears over the years. But this one, made in honor of a loving husband and serviceman, is really special. It was made entirely from this army dress uniform. His medals, patches, and aiguillette (the ornamental braided cord) were all added. A standard tie was made instead of the bow tie. A quilt and pillow were also made. Learn more here.
