I'm just online for a quick visit for the first time in ages and to say "Hello" that I haven't forgotten all you wonderful people. :D Family and actual quilting have taken up all my free time recently. I will get back to chatting soon.

But... the Wedding Quilt plan has all be changed as my son arrived home for a couple of days and brought along my future DIL for the afternoon and a family dinner.

Out of the blue, she asked if I'd thought about their quilt or decided on a design. When I said that I'd thought about it... a LOT but not made a final descision. :-D my son asked if I would mind if they could pick it themselves instead.

:shock: Delighted!! Go right ahead!!

Ok, they spent over two hours with their heads together going through my books, rummaging through my stash, photos of the quilts I've already made, magazines, printouts and DVDs.

They both agreed and kept going back to one in particular. The new Red Rooster 'Heart and Soul' quilt and fabric. They love it.

Now I have to try and find the fabric somewhere in the UK, (any help appreciated)... and find a way to arrange the blocks on the online pattern to make the quilt bigger.

Thank you everyone for all your imput... in a way I'm really happy that they've took the bull by the horns and made the choice themselves... I just hope it mine turns out as lovely as they saw in the advert picture.
