A few years ago I discovered handprints in quilting. Imagine taking your child’s or even your own handprints and having them memorialized forever! Handprinting is so much fun. Here are more than a few ideas for you to consider:

These quilts are great as preschool projects. There are ideas for nearly every theme within a school year. Undersea creatures, birds, holidays and even weather. Whatever you can think up we can create together!

What about a birthday party? Instead of handprints have footprints! Each of your daughters friends footprints become flip-flops and she has a lasting memory of her party!!

For teachers, grandparents, any special person in your child’s life. There is nothing more special than a box with your child’s handprint on the front. If for a teacher, get other parents to write thank you notes to add to the box. There is no better way to ‘thank you’ than a personalized, one-of-a-kind gift box filled with sentiments!

Birthday Presents

A parent at my daughters’ school approached me about making a quilt for their daughter. She was getting her own room with a new big girl bed and they wanted her to have a quilt. One filled with memories. I printed her hands every month then decorated the hand prints; an apple, a candy corn, a leaf, a Christmas tree, mittens, a heart, a shamrock, an Easter egg, a pink octopus and a strawberry. The final month was a block with pictures of her with her parents. It was a very special gift for her and her family to enjoy for years to come.
