A Quilt for Megan
In May 2012, Donna presented a quilt to her granddaughter Megan for her high school graduation. The quilt was made with colors Megan loved, reflecting the care Donna puts into tailoring each project to the recipient's personality.
Graduation Gifts & Special Labels
Celebrating family milestones with handmade quilts and thoughtful details that tell a story.
Envelope-Style Quilt Labels
One of Donna's signature touches is the use of envelope-style quilt labels. Rather than a simple tag, she creates a small fabric envelope sewn into the quilt backing — a hidden pocket that can hold a handwritten note, the quilt's story, or a photo. It's a way to preserve the history of each quilt for future generations.
"I think she likes it!" — Donna, after seeing Megan's reaction to her graduation quilt.
Quilts That Speak to the Recipient
Donna pays close attention to the color preferences of her grandchildren when choosing fabrics. Whether it's a favorite shade of blue, a love for floral prints, or a soft pastel palette, each quilt becomes a personal gift that reflects the bond between maker and recipient. These quilts mark not just milestones, but the love stitched into every seam.
More Than a Gift
For Donna, a graduation quilt is more than fabric and thread. It's a tangible reminder of home, of someone who believes in you, and of the handmade tradition she hopes her grandchildren will carry forward.
