I did manage to get together with our friend, Tyler, before he leaves for school in Newfoundland, to give him the quilt I made for him. He was very touched and he appreciated all the work that went into it. It will keep him warm this winter. The photo is horrible. I only had my cellphone. You can see why I had to make the quilt longer! Tyler sure makes me look very short. Guess I am. He is almost a foot and a half taller than me!
Remember all the sewing I was doing for my niece's wedding? Well, the wedding took place this past weekend and everything looked just wonderful. Here is a shot of the head table with the burlap and lace runner and the flags I made.
The quilt guest book went over really well and I now have lots of signature squares to incorporate into the design for the backing of the wedding quilt.
And here she is....She was so beautiful, I cried a lot...when I gave the Toast to the Bride I had everyone crying, even the men!
The happy couple
I hope you had time to do something quilty today!
Gorgeous wedding. Love the sunflower centerpieces.
ReplyDeleteOh! She is absolutely beautiful! Congratulatios!
ReplyDeleteYou are truly amazing, Linda. The wedding pictures are scrumptious. You really did an amazing job preparing. I'd like to have been a fly on the wall to hear your toast. Never in a million years could I have gotten up there and addressed all those people. She is a truly gorgeous bride. Well done, my friend.
