SOOO the big question is do I add another project to my to do list and try to make up a quick tablerunner or a D9P lapquilt. I may be able to put one of those at the front of my list and get it done in time. BTW this is a low key affair - 2nd marriage justice of the peace wedding w/just the bride and groom and their children from previous marriages. Thoughts and comments appreciated!!
I would go with the D9P and then have it professionally quilted (time factor here) if there is someone you know who can do it. I usually make my lap quilts (I call them coverlets) 3 - 12" across and 5 - 12" down - 2" sashing and 4" border. Shouldn't take too long. I'd line up a quilter person first though!
