Smile Red & White Wedding Quilt

Hi

I made this Red&White quilt for my son and his bride....the bride chose the fabrics, the rest was up to me...
I had to enlarge the quilt with several borders to get it to king-size.
On the label I explained to them the meaning of the blocks....(my meanings, of course )

The center medallion is a pattern called <3Fireworks - this represent the love they share.
The four pinwheels in the corners is a reminder that Time goes by quickly...
The 3D diamonds are for those special diamond-days in any marriage and the white represents the space they have to give each other to be their own person.<3
The Red Friendship-stars represents family and the beige Friendship-stars for Friends.
Notice these stars are on the outside of the marital space - which is where they belong - outside any marriage.
In the corners are 4 Hourglasses....another reminder about time running out....
The delectable mountains represents the normal ups & downs in any marriage.<3

I enjoyed making it
