Quilting Spree

Even as you give away your baby's barely-worn clothes to cousins and charities, there are some things from his first years that you just can't give up: the yellow knit sweater he took his first steps in, that cotton shirt with the teddy that made strangers stop and coo, or the adorable onesie your mom gave you. These things hold too much sentimental value to just toss. But you only have so much space for storage. Time to get creative – and crafty.

Willow Creek Baby offers custom memory blankets that preserve those precious favorite items. Choose the pieces you want to preserve (her first pajamas, a beloved burp cloth) and Willow Creek creates a one-of-a-kind patchwork blanket backed in soft chenille. You choose the size, from 16 to 36 pieces, and in four to six weeks a hand-crafted creation is born. The end result is perfect for hanging or cuddling, bringing all those memories into your home – and out of your closet.

So the next time your child's adorable pink dress suddenly becomes a top after a few months, you'll feel better knowing it can live on in a future heirloom.
