"I love dogs and have always had one of my own. As we all know, there will be a
day our pets will leave us. I just recently lost my 11 1/2 year old Rottweiler
Emma, my best friend. Then, (my step daughter) Rita surprised me with this beautiful memory pillow!
Every time when I look at the pillow or have it in my arms, I feel as if my darling
Emma is there with me. What a heart warming gift especially for someone, who has
lost a pet. I just love it!"

"I love my “Memory Quilt”. Rita Sheloff came into my life after I lost my 37 yr
old daughter, Tammy in November 2007. Tammy’s friends commissioned Rita to make
a Memory Quilt of her for me and my husband. I found Rita to be professional and
the workmanship outstanding. The picture of the quilt does not do it justice.
What a treasured keepsake to be passed on to family members."

Once again your talents have made someone in my life extremely happy. The retirement gift of
a cushion with a picture of my colleague's pet parrot didn't simply go over great - she was
thrilled! She is moving to London for a year and can't take Pepe with her, so how appropriate
that she has him with her in the form of a cushion. I've received e-mails from 4 other
colleagues, ranting about your talents and my innovative idea. I'm sure you'll hear from
them yourself.
You'll remain my favorite on-line shopping 'store'. I'm already compiling my Christmas shopping list.
Again, thank you so much for your excellent, speedy work and I look forward to having more gifts done for my family and friends. It's a hit!

"The memory quilt I had made was for my eldest daughter's 29th Birthday. She is married with 3
children, so I wanted something that she would have the rest of her life and could pass down.
When I contacted Rita, and mentioned to her what I wanted, she was very helpful in finding the
exact fabric colors that I was looking for and produced a product that was far beyond my
expectations! I was also amazed at how quickly it was completed. I am a sewer myself, but I
do not quilt, so I know just how much work and love went into this piece! I will be recommending
her highly to everyone who may want something unique and extraordinary. I'm sure I will be calling
on her again for another special memory quilt.

"I am thrilled with the 2 memory cushions you recently made for me. My mother-in-law in
Switzerland will be so surprised with her memory pillow with pictures of her son, granddaughters,
and great grandsons. I know she'll shed some happy tears on Mothers Day. Not surprisingly, you
can expect at least 2 orders - 1 for cushions and 1 for a quilt. My niece wants to have cushions
for her Mom and mother-in-law and as soon as I can round up the appropriate photos , I'll be
ordering a quilt for my daughter and son-in-law. They love the idea and your work.
I'm not sure if you have gift certificates/coupons for sale but if you do, I would like 4 $25.00
ones.
Many thanks again for the wonderful cushions. Your work is very professional and fast! I gush to everyone about you. What a special and unique gift idea to share."

"We're delighted with (Sabine's) quilt - it's beautiful! It was a gift from my cousin Mike
and his wife Marilyn. Sabine was watching intently as I unwrapped it. She's really taken
with other babies and she gave a big grin when she saw the picture on the quilt - not
recognizing herself quite yet! It was neat to see her grin as soon as I unfolded the quilt."

"I was impressed with the professionalism of service, and the quality of workmanship
is second to none!"
"When the time comes again that I need a unique keepsake as a gift for someone, or a memorial quilt for myself, I know who I'll be calling! When I looked at Sabine's quilt (baby birth announcement quilt), I could feel the love and attention to detail that you gave this project. It's a very special gift that you have, and that you share with others. I wish you all the continued success that I know will come your way!"

"I absolutely love the quilt! It's amazing how you were able to capture Heidi like that on fabric.
We hung it on the wall in a common area where we can see it everyday. The quilt completely brightens
up the room and people are astounded when they see it! It's so beautiful…I'll be getting one for all
of my future children!"
