I went to a wedding where someone had made the Bride & Groom a beautiful quilt, and they had folded it so that the main pattern of the quilt was displayed and it also had their names and wedding date embroidered onto the quilt. It was beautiful! It would be great to have the large bag/pillowcase to store the quilt in for the couple.

If I were going to use a basket I would get a cloth lined basket with handles on the end like the old fashioned kind or check with some bridal shops or cleaners who specialize in bridal cleaning and see if they will sell you a wedding dress box. Then put a big bow on it.

Have finished a king double wedding ring quilt for my grandson and wife-to-be and will be hand carrying to the wedding. It is too large for the x-large gift bags so am looking for some "creative" way to wrap, etc. Would love to hear how other quilters present large wedding quilts.

Furoshik is Japanese wrapping cloth. It is very handy when wrapping odd shaped items. I use this when I don't have a pillowcase when storing my linens. http://furoshiki.com/techniques/
