Dear Sandi,

My Mothers 50Th birthday is coming up and I wanted to do something special for her.  I was searching the web for ideas and came across Quiltstories.com.  I thought this is the perfect gift for my Mother.  I started to research it more and check out other memory quilt web sites.  I even called a few local places and the prices were insane.  So I kept going back to quiltstories.com.  I started e-mailing questions to Sandi and was surprised at how fast she responded.  Some responses were within minutes.  After a few days of talking with Sandi, I decided this was the ideal gift.  My Grandmother (her Mother) has recently passed away of breast cancer and I thought it would be the best gift in so many ways. 

Throughout the e-mails, Sandi informed me that I would be able to be a part of the quilts development.  I was able to choose the colors and once I had decided on the colors she e-mailed me pictures of different types of fabric in those colors.  I have to say she has beautiful fabrics.  It was just perfect.  I loved the fact that each person is given their own web page and is able to see the quilt in process.  I was able to put the pictures in order and see it before it was finalized.  I was so surprised that I got to play such an important role in the development.  It really makes the quilt that much more special!

When Sandi was finished she had posted pictures of the quilt on my web page.  It was absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!!   I received the quilt about a week ago and have to say "WOW!"  The pictures don't even do justice to the beauty of the quilt.  I was so shocked!!!  It was GORGEOUS!!!  The stitching was amazing.  I couldn't believe how beautiful the quilt was.  I couldn't be any happier.  I was even amazed at how well the pictures looked on the fabric.  They were clear as day.  Looking at the quilt brought tears to my eyes.  I can't wait to give this gift to my Mother.  This is one of the first gifts I have given her that has come straight from the heart. 

 I am so proud but I couldn't have done it without you Sandi.  Thank-you so much for all the time you put into this quilt.  It really shows.  I love it so much and I know my Mother will too!!!!  You'll be hearing from me again soon.

God Bless You

Stephanie, Phoenix, AZ


DEAR SANDI,

JUST WANTED YOU TO KNOW THAT MY MOTHER IN LAW LOVED THE QUILT YOU MADE FOR HER 70TH BIRTHDAY.  WE OPENED IT IN FRONT OF 30+ CLOSE FAMILY MEMBERS AT HER SURPRISE PARTY LAST WEEK, AND SHE WAS OVERWHELMED WITH EMOTION.  EVERYONE AT THE PARTY STOOD IN AWE OF SUCH A BEAUTIFUL CREATION.

I FEEL BLESSED TO HAVE FOUND YOUR WEBSITE, AND MY HUSBAND AND I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER WITH THE GIFT YOU CREATED FOR OUR MOM.  MAY YOU CONTINUE TO KNOW HOW MUCH THE WORK YOU DO TOUCHES MANY LIVES.

GOD BLESS YOU, YOUR STAFF AND FAMILY.

MICHELE,  RINGWOOD  NJ

 

I have had the honor of working with Sandi and Quilt Stories.  I would not use anybody else.   Sandi is exceptional, the customer service is impeccable and the quilt I ordered is remarkable!  Sandi worked with me step by step to create the perfect memory quilt for my son's 7th grade auction project.  

When you look on the internet for somebody to help you with your projects, you really do not know exactly who you are working with.  You don't have to worry about Sandi.  She is a person who takes her craft seriously and wants your experience with her to be one you can remember for years.  You can trust Sandi.  She is true to her word.  Isn't that great in today's world?

I would highly recommend Quilt Stories for any special occassions you might have; weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, baptisms, she can do it all.  Sandi does not make quilts, she makes works of art.

With that said, I am glad I found Quilt Stories.  I will be emailing you, Sandi, for more quilts.

Good Morning Sandi,

 WOW!!!!!  That probably best describes the impact on the recipient and others when we revealed the beautiful memory quilt at Bea-Be's surprise birthday party!!!  Several people requested your contact information and I enthusiastically directed them to your website. 

Also, thank you so much for the awesome CD with the happy birthday photographs and music.  We showed that along with the quilt and it provided a very emotional impact during our presentation!!!

 Again, Sandi, we cannot begin to thank you enough for the awesome process of working with you to create this amazing memory quilt!  You have made this experience very pleasant and painless, too.   You are very detailed, thorough, and obviously committed to excellence as evidenced in the completed product.  I am in the process of collecting photos to include on the quilt that I would like for you to make for my dad's 90th birthday in March, 2008. 

You are wonderful!!! 

With Regards,

 Althea and Family, Reisterstown, MD

 

One of the luckiest days of my life was when I was surfing the web for a memory quilt site and came across quiltstores.com. I perused the site and was pleasantly surprised at the plethora of information that was there for potential customers to view.

As I was viewing many different sites for memory quilts I kept coming back to quiltstores.com and I decided that I would send a message off to them with general questions and see what they say. Well much to my surprise and pleasure my email was answered right away and that is how my two gorgeous lap quilts began their journey to me.

Sandi you allowed and encouraged me to be part of the quilts development process which in turn makes the quilts a loving process that I can relate to my grand-daughters who are the lucky recipients of these amazing lap quilts.

You have weaved your magic through all phases of the quilts process. From selection of the pictures, the important selection of fabric (and you went outside the box and got fabric with the designs I wanted and also symbols), to the placement of the pictures, and even to the color of the thread to match and blend the fabric. You are an artist of quilt making and your love of family comes out in your work.

I applaud you for what you do and how you allow other people to not only share these memories with their family but to take away with them a little of your wonderful spirit of love.

Thank you just does not seem enough but there it is ....

Best Wishes,

The quilt came today and it is even more beautiful than I could ever have imagined! The stitching is so lovely and the colors are absolutely perfect.  Thank you so much for your hard work and effort put into making this wonderful quilt in such a short time-frame . It is very clear to see the love you put into your creations- you should feel very satisfied that you are able to bring joy to those of us looking for a such a special and unique gift for our loved ones. I will be sure to take pictures of my son and daughter-in-law to be when they are presented with the quilt.  

The personal website gives a fantastic personal touch to the entire process.  As I told you, several of my friends have seen the web page of my quilt (as well as the others on your website) and loved it- wait until they see the real thing.  You may be getting additional customers in them in the future. 

Thank you again,

Donna , Warwick, NJ


We got the quilt in more than enough time. We loved it! My mother in law cried, she said it was the best present she ever got. The quilt is so incredibly beautiful and I enjoyed the process of making it so much and your customer service is great. Thank you for everything and I will be contacting you in the near future about one for my mother.

Thanks,

Amber, Ellendale ND


The quilt looks great! Thanks so much for all your hard work. I know my mother will love it.

I received the pillow on Thursday. It was perfect. All the kids (in the photos) had dinner with Mom and Dad and she opened it there! She cried. She absolutely loved it!! It goes perfect on her bed with her comforters and all the colors of the room. The fringe even matches the wood in the headboard!!  I can't thank you enough for your wonderful work. I hope to make another one with you sometime soon. Dusty (my husband) and I are hoping for our first child soon and I want to make a quilt for the crib. I'll be in touch!!!!

Everything is wonderful.  Thank you again for such a terrific job.  You will be hearing from me again as I will be getting married May 19th and I’d love a wedding quilt or wall hanging.  You’ve got a customer for life!

Thanks again, 

Kim, Hilbert WI

Hi Sandi:

I've attached a few pics from the party; it turned out sooooooooo nice!  Everyone was just taken back by the quilt; they loved it!  The first pic is of my mom & her companion (Jimmy); the second is the pic of me showing everyone the quilt; the third is a pic of my mom blowing out the candles on a little cake (we got her a little cake w/20 candles on it; 10 to symbolize the last 10 years of survival and 10 for the next).  Again Thank You for all your help!

Rashona, Franklin, VA


My wife (and all of her friends at work!) loved the quilt.  Thanks for the bonus pillow and the anniversary card.

Sandi,

      I just wanted to thank you one more time and let you know how much my mother and sister love their quilts.  I made my sister wait until she was on the phone with me to open hers.  I put her on speaker phone and my mother and her opened them at the same time. Of course, they were both crying when they saw what they were.  Liz was actually sobbing, but my mother just had tears trickling down her face.      They each think theirs is the prettiest.  My sister said "mine is red and black with hearts mom is yours?"  Mom told her "no, mine has iris".  They were both crying and telling me how I always find the perfect gifts.  Mom took hers over to her brother's house to show him and then to my dad's sisters to show them.  I am sure it will also go with her to the next Iris club meeting!   

    They also loved the added bonus of the pictures on the DVD.  You just thought of everything.  Thank you so much for making this Christmas such a special one for my family. 

God bless you,

 Suzanne, Tulsa OK


I just went to the site and saw the beautiful quilt!  You have done such a wonderful job and so fast!  I cannot thank you enough.  My parents are going to love this.  If you have business cards, please send me a few went you ship the quilt so I can refer some friends to you.

Sarah,  Aurora OH


The quilt top looks great. I really like how the colors came together and the prints you picked out.

Thanks,

Vonda, Columbus OH


 Just wanted you to know we received the quilt today and we love it.  The pictures came out very nice.  I like the colors too.  Thank you so much for the picture CD's.  We really appreciate it.  The quilt fits nicely on our bed, but I am not going to use it for everyday use.  It is just for looks.  HA HA.   

     Once again I just want to thank you for doing such a good job on the quilt.  We finally had a chance to sit down and watch the video and it was great.  My father recently passed away and they made one of him that we were all able to purchase.  Those types of things are priceless.  It is very much appreciated that you took the time to do that.  We will also treasure the quilt for many years to come.  Thanks,  

Will and Vanessa,  Lincoln Park MI
