Shelly's Quilt

This quilt was made for the Shelly Foundation

My sister's friend, Shelly Frias, lost her life to a Ependymoma Tumor.  The Shelly Foundation was founded in September 2006 by her family in memory of Shelly's life.  Shelly's mother hand-crafts beautiful vintage style hats, so I figured a hat quilt would be an appropriate design for the silent auction.  I designed this quilt while away on a "sisters' retreat" with my mom and sisters.
