The fact you are making them a quilt when you could have just bought something off a registry speak volumes.

Enjoy the wedding, no one is going to know if you sent something, gave them a gift card or a check or anything else. When you deliver the quilt, then you can explain why it's late, only if you want to because I am sure they will not care.
