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 :o)

The center medallion is a pattern called <3Fireworks - this represent the love they share.:hug:
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.:cool:
Notice these stars are on the outside of the marital space - which is where they belong - outside any marriage.:thumbup:
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:o

I like your explanation of the quilt blocks. I also like the fact that you let the bride to be pick out the main color. It will ensure she likes it. Nice piecing!
