First, please let me take a moment to say thank you for visiting our site. Please know that personalized service is our main goal and we will work extensively with each customer to make sure you receive what you are looking for.

 

The idea for The Memories Zone custom memory quilts site came from my family's own story that needed memorialized. I have lost both a brother and my father in the past years. After their passing, I asked my mother to set aside their shirts because someday I was going to make a "memory quilt". I did not even have a sewing machine at the time. It had also been a long time since I had sewn anything. After some time passed, I finally purchased a sewing machine and picked up the shirts and went to town creating a quilt I never knew how to make.

 

I carefully cut the shirts and decided to include seams, buttons, pockets, etc., everything that might have been touched. I wanted it all in the quilts. When finished, I sat in amazement on how comforting it was to have this quilt. Favorite clothing items were included in a quilt that I could wrap myself in and remember them with. Then I started creating designed clothing blocks (butterflies, stars, etc) and adding photos and more. One year for Christmas, I even made quilts for each of my 3 sisters and then a designed butterfly block quilt for my mother. From there, the projects kept appearing. At the encouragement of family and friends, "The Memories Zone" was born. My goal is truly to treat each item ordered as if it were for my own family.

 

Now, not only do we make memorial quilts, we celebrate every aspect of memories (both past and present) by creating photo memory quilts or T-Shirt and Jeans quilts for any occasion. If you have a memory that you would like to preserve, we would like to help. The memory items can be as small or large as requested. We can create wall hangings as well.

 

Since "we" is referred to a lot on "our" site, I think "we" should introduce ourselves. "We" are currently a two person team. My name is Trish and I do all of the creating, sewing, quiltings, etc., and the other team member is my hubby Jeff. He does the "understanding" when I'm sewing nonstop to finish the quilts by the date promised. He is the "support" system. I could not do it without him! . It takes two or more to make this venture a team success. "We" appreciate your visit!!!

 

Finally, again a note of thanks for taking the time to visit. You can be sure that you will receive the personalized service that your memories deserve in order to be preserved in whichever format you choose.

 

Thank you!

Trish
