Quilt for Wedding

This is a quilt for a couple getting married in November. We know them from the boating community near here, so I chose a nautically themed pantograph and a nautically themed label.
Pattern adapted from a free pattern "Five Fat Quarter Fun- Cabin Fever". I adjusted the size by including more blocks and made pinwheels for cornerstones from the cut-off of snowballing the corners of the blocks.
I used the leftover batiks and some background to make a scrappy type binding, I'm not sure if that shows up well in the photos. They were so excited to take it home I didn't get any pictures and had to ask her to take some photos and send them to me.
They have a dog, who has already deposited dog hair on the label!
Backing is a wide flannel, front is batiks (coloured) and a blender for background that is brownish/black

Beautiful quilt!

Very nice!

I bet they just love it! It's really a beautiful quilt & the label says it all to them.

Super quilt and I love the quilting. BrendaK

Nice looking quilt! Love your message to them and the quilting pattern you chose.

Love the variagated (sp?) thread you used for the quilting and embroidery.

Very nice. They sure do have a nice boating friend is what I would say. Great job. The label is really nice. Did you pen that? So sweet. Thx for sharing.
