Semi-Finished Wedding Wall Quilt

Ok so here is an updated picture of the wall quilt. I added corners to the back to put a dow rod for hanging and finished binding it yesterday. Now I get to go shopping for dow rods and ribbon to hang it. Let me know what you think (good, bad, or both).

Caleb's Quilt

Wow, so I'm such a lazy bum. I've had this quilt laying on a shelf for months and just now realized I hadn't taken a picture of it (much less got it to Caleb...thanks to sickness and bad timing). Well, now all that's over for a bit and I need to get with you Kathlyn. Let me know when you'd like to go to the coffee place or wherever. Well, here is the long awaited picture.

Wedding Quilt Sneak Peak and 100th Post!

Wow, can't believe this is my 100th post. Time flies...

Anyways, I just wanted to give everyone an idea of what the quilt will look like. It isn't sewn completely together, just in groups. I have to go and get some embroidery thread to finish the middle before I can sew it together. I'm just going to put their names and their wedding date in the middle. This will give you an idea of what it will look like.

Enjoy!

Wedding Wall Quilt - Tulip Block

Wanted to give everyone a taste of what the some of the blocks will look like.


Wedding Wall Quilt

A good friend of ours (one of Tom's best men in our wedding) is getting married in August. So I have decided to make their wedding present or at least part of it. I have also wanted to do this pattern and see how it turns out.

Their colors are purple and green (I added the the invitation to the picture below with the fabric).

I finally got the fabric yesterday and just finished cutting out the pieces. Well, except for the batting because it's drying right now. I wash everything before and after I make something.

Well, here it is so far. There are a bunch of pieces so I organized them (while I still remembered which ones were what) by letter like it lists them in the pattern.


LOL My cutting board is straight...gotta love trying to take a picture and fitting everything in above your head.
