| My DD and DSIL's 2nd anniversary is September 27, and their wedding quilt is finished! We will see them tomorrow afternoon and plan to give the quilt to them. We have been puppy sitting for them for two weeks and we are going to meet to hand off the dog and the quilt.
I took pictures of the quilt, label, and pillowcases made from leftover fabric. I am very happy with the results on this quilt. I have another DWR started and scheduled time with the longarmer for November 2011. That is the earliest date she has available for a custom job. That means I have all winter to make the top! lol Linda OH |

| Beautiful! I love your color choices. Is this a surprise? |
|
| Thank you. The quilt is not a surprise. My DD helped me pick the fabrics before the wedding. Her wedding colors were the dark brown and light teal. When they were home in August, I had the quilt back from the quilter but didn't have the binding finished. I put it on my bed for them to see. DD gave me numerous hugs and even got teary. She loves it! Linda OH |
