This is a wedding quilt I made. I thought I would make the lap/wall hanging size but didn't realize that it made it a postage stamp quilt, :lol: So, some of the finished pieces were 1/2" x 1" and was a pain to press the seams on those but I love the finished product...but my next Bargello will be a full size. :-D

Before I added borders.

Quilted with a loose, water-like stipple.

The "picture frame" applique on the back to show the quilting tag, a copy of the wedding invitation and two photos: one of the couple in sepia and one of their hands with the wedding bands in black and white.

Very very nice! I love this pattern. I will deffinately check it out now that I've seen one done. I made my youngest daughter a double wedding ring quilt for wedding gift. It had a pic of her and another pic of her husband when they wer about 4-5 years old. I also embroideried their names and wedding date on it. I forgot to mention I used her great-grandmothers fabrics in the quilt. It turned out great but I didn't realize the fabrics might not hold up so she uses it as a wall hanging. I'll try and get a pic of this quilt on someday to share with you all. Sorry so long. LOL in Christ, Carmen.
