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!
Contact me ASAP if you are interested in a premium, custom Memory quilt, pillow, or bear for any occasion.

Quilt Updates:
MQBM is busy every day creating beautiful memory quilts, pillows, bears, and hearts! This summer has been filled with many specialty memory products! As the summer winds down, we begin thinking about the holidays. August and September are great months to order Memory products. MQBM books up fast! So, if interested in a Memory product, for any occasion, please contact me.
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!
2 Harley Davidson Quilts made with awesome t-shirts
many memorial quilts that honor those we have lost
A Gorgeous Traditional Style Quilt!
Shown here is a a vibrant traditional style quilt made with block sashing. It is filled with swimming shirts and North Penn Blues! This twin size quilt that measures 70" by 95" is perfect for the dorm room beds at college. Truly wonderful memories of super fun high school swimming meets. Enjoy this album!
Hot Off The Press!
Memory Quilts by Molly is featured in the Quilt it...today Magazine
I just received the Quilt-it...today Magazine. The magazine featured two of my custom quilts on page 26 and 27 of the magazine.
I am so very thankful that my work was included in the article! Sadly, the magazine isn't online, I guess they want you to go buy a copy ;)
A baby Quilt made with baby's first year adorable outfits and a Hankie Quilt made for a bride-to-be with her great grand moms hankies were highlighted in the article!
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!

Special Memorial Bear
posted Aug 15, 2023, 8:01 PM by Molly Fisher
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.
Family Quilts

MQBM makes a lot of Memorial Quilts for families. These orders consist of 3 or more quilts, pillows, and/or bears that are made in honor of a lost loved one. We strive to make sure these products are designed properly for each family member. There is a decent amount of coordination involved. But the end result is always products that help families heal like these 3 quilts shown here.

On June 10, 2023 MQBM turned 12! Shown here are 12 of the most memorable quilts and/or best photos taken over the past 12 years! Out of the thousands of pics, these are the best!
I never imagined MQBM would become a full-time business for me. I do know this; it has been a very creative, rewarding, and sometimes stressful ride. But I am content to be on this road and would like to thank you all for your support. I couldn’t have done it without you! Happy birthday MQBM!
Small Square Quilts
posted May 2, 2023, 8:55 AM by Molly Fisher
MQBM Small Square quilts are truly custom quilts! This quilt shown here is made up of over 15 pairs of denim jeans worn by a beloved husband who recently passed away. Just love the stitching and design of this quilt. An enormous amount of labor went into making this. There are 108 squares of denim. MQBM had extra squares so a patchwork pillow was made to go with the quilt. This order is off to Germany! Germany now has 2 MQBM quilts!
