Seems like I have no more than a few stolen moments to work on this fabric memory book for stitchinfingers.ning.com. I'm calling it "My Grandfathers Wallet" as it is the contents of his wallet at the time of his death in 1965. I've included some of the pictures he had as well as mementos from his time in WW2 and some poems I have written for him through the years. It has been a very healing project so I am not rushing it. I have been using some of Pat Winters lovely hand dyed ribbon as well as Pam Kelloggs beautiful hand dyed vintage lace.

What a beautiful book. It gave me chills reading it and feeling the love and how much you miss your pop pop. Lovely memories I know remain.Gentle hugs.

Wow Mom! That looks really good!!
This is absolutely beautiful, Terri, I did wall hangings in crazy quilt for my dad, one with pictures and memorabilia from WW11, and the other with his ties, and church pins. Nothing as elaborite as this though, amazing and very touching.
