Alfie Keepsake Keepsake Quilt
The Alfie is my latest keepsake quilt design. It is named after my own little boy after I made his keepsake in this style. Every other square in the rows are 6" (5.5" when sewn in) and 3" (2.5" when sewn in). This design suits smaller items or just patterned items like shirts. It is perfect if you don't want equal squares but the clothes are too small or simple for a mosaic style
Choose your quilt size and backing option.
All quilts come with a 100% cotton backing. A plain textured cotton is included as standard. Printed quilting cottons are available as an optional upgrade.

Each quilt is a three-layer keepsake, made using:
Your patchwork items
High-quality wadding (70% recycled cotton / 30% recycled polyester)
100% cotton backing
All three layers are quilted together in the ditch of the items so the stitching is minimal on the front. The edges are finished with a 100% cotton binding in a complimentary colour.
I use my experience to ensure your items are showcased beautifully, preserving special details and motifs wherever possible.
You can personalise your quilt in a way that’s meaningful to you:
A full name in the centre of the quilt
A smaller patch with a name and date of birth
Or something entirely custom — just get in touch if you have a special idea
