I am very sentimental about my children’s baby clothes.  They’re just so darn cute and hard to part with.  Here is a way to keep the baby memories without stowing huge boxes in your attic forever.  Create a quilt from your recycled baby clothes.  (But you’ll have to figure out the quilting steps for yourself because this mommy in the picture paid someone to make her quilt.)

I think this would be a thoughtful and thrifty gift to give to your grown child when they are expecting their first bundle of joy!
