Upload your Favorite Song to your VoiceQuilt

I’m noticing more and more songs in VoiceQuilts keepsake gifts.

Many VoiceQuilt gift givers buy a favorite song from Amazon or iTunes and then upload the mp3 to their VoiceQuilt. Some callers record a quick dedication and then hold the phone up to a speaker while a favorite song is playing.

I always laugh when gift givers share voice messages with us where callers "sing their hearts out" - especially when they make up new words to old favorites. Check out the “Dixie Chicks”, the last voice message on this page.

They're singing to celebrate a 50th wedding anniversary. I imagine that the happy couple that received this VoiceQuilt keepsake box smiles every time they lift the keepsake lid..

"Perfect gift for my parent's 50th anniversary" - VoiceQuilt

A customer wrote us on Sunday:

"I love VoiceQuilt!

It was the perfect gift for my parent's 50th wedding anniversary.

They no longer need "things" as gifts- in fact they are running out of room to store items, but the memories and well-wishes they received in their VoiceQuilt were priceless and I too will treasure it.

In fact, now we have all kinds of plans to do more VoiceQuilts for other family members' events.

Thank you for this great idea and product!!!"

VoiceQuilt Biggest Surprise "That this product exists"

Customers responded to our survey question "What was your biggest surprise?":


"How unique the VoiceQuilt is, how nice the keepsake box is and how quickly I received the items after I finished my VoiceQuilt. I was also tickled to have all my siblings call in and thought that they all left wonderful messages."

"This was a fabulous gift for my Dad's 80th birthday. We did not have an in person party so this was the next best thing."

"How many responded with such wonderful thoughts, the clarity of messages and ease of the whole process."

"Just how much people opened up in their messages; the depth of feeling articulated".

"That this product exists."

"That people had difficulty understanding what this product is, and were therefore reluctant to participate - you instructions were very clear and intuitive. Perhaps just getting the word out that your product exists would help - and I know you are doing your best to do this."

"Although organizing, researching family and friend's phone numbers and constant reminders of deadline was a bit of a task, finishing up the VoiceQuilt was real easy (which was a concern of mine)"

"How much I learned about my dad from listening to all the stories from the callers."

A word in defense of the phone system...

Darrin, a VoiceQuilt Founding Member, responded to a customer concern recently:

"The telephone system has never won an award from a high-fidelity magazine. It was never intended to. Recording equipment lives a sheltered life in an air-conditioned room; the telephone network lives outdoors, 24 hours a day, sometimes in incredibly bad weather. So we are willing to forgive a little static from time to time.

At VoiceQuilt, every recorded voice message is automatically processed with several methods aimed at improving sound quality. When customers notify us of a particularly troublesome message (usually from a cell phone) our in-house audio folks can do a little touch-up...

Great Grandmother creates VoiceQuilts for Family Members























Wit, Wisdom and A Dish Cloth


Dorothy is an exceptional woman. At age 93, she's still going strong, with a sharp mind and a heart full of love for her ever-growing family. Each Christmas, she hand-knits dish cloths for all of her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren and gives them as gifts along with dining cards to a favorite restaurant.

This year, she decided to present her descendants with the gift of a treasured memory. With the help of granddaughter Melinda, Dorothy gave each recipient a VoiceQuilt which preserved her 2009 Christmas greetings in a one-of-a-kind audio message. All she had to do was call VoiceQuilt's toll-free number and record the message. From there, it was downloaded into identical keepsake boxes for each relative.

Dorothy read a special poem, written by Melinda, which referenced key milestones in her life and spoke of her deep love for the family. Inside the polished wooden boxes, Dorothy and Melinda added a photo of Dorothy, index cards with recipes - including Dorothy's prize-winning recipe for green jell-o salad - and, of course, the annual hand-knitted dish cloth.

Now, her family have a touching reminder of a beloved family matriarch for many decades to come.

Needless to say it was the best Birthday gift ever!
