The second project I did with my Mom's clothes involved the fabric. I cut small strips of the fabric, rolled them up and glued them together. This is still a work in progress. I am working on a large heart shape right now. Once I am done, I will glue all of the pieces onto a large piece of her white shirt and frame it. This is a beautiful and artistic way to remember someone. Instead of throwing away or selling their clothes, turn them into something beautiful to hang on your wall. Every time I look at what I created, I think of how my Mom looked when she wore these clothes. She lived her life in these clothes and she also fought the hardest battle of her life in these clothes.
