These memory quilts were made in a class taught by the Champaign, Il Park District. The students were all in their 70's and 80's and had little or no prior experience in quilt making or sewing. The instructor taught them how to make the border blocks, scan and print family pictures and piece the blocks.
It was great for me to see the individual adaptations of the basic design to try different custom quilting motifs to complement their block designs and color choices.
