I've been working this week on finishing the wedding gift for my cousin's wedding, which was April 12th. I finished the piecing yesterday & today sandwiched & spraybasted. I will start on the quilting sometime this week. Thank goodness she doesn't know I'm making this so she will be surprised no matter how "late" I am getting it finished & to her!

**Note: In person the colors do not have the tonal variances that are showing up in the pictures.

A beautiful quilt. I love it and would love to be surprised by something this beautiful, so if your cousin doesn't like it, just post it on to me :lol: :lol: :lol:

Such pretty fabrics you used. I think I have that teal in my stash.

Beautiful!! Another on the 'To Do' list!!

Very pretty. I'm sure she will love it.

beautiful!!!!

Really nice. It is in my "to do" list.

Pretty & she will be sew pleasantly surprized!

Love it! Those are some of my favorite colors.

Very pretty, how are you going to quilt it? Can't to see it done. Don't forget to post a pic.

That's beautiful--my favorite colors.

How are you going to quilt it? I just finished the same top and I'm staring at it wondering how to quilt it. Please share your quilting ideas--thanks!

Love it and the fabric colors are beautiful!!

Nice colors!!! :thumbup:

Can't wait to see it quilted. Such pretty fabrics.

That is stunning. I love the colors

lovely! I want to do one of this pattern "one day".

GORGEOUS!!

Beautiful!

Gorgeous! Can't wait to see it finished :D:D:D

I'll let her know to return it if she doesn't like it so I can send it on to you instead LOL :D

I'n not sure yet how I am going to quilt it. I am limited in what I can do (haven't learned FMQ - yet!). I'm sketching out a couple of ideas. I'll be sure to share them with you. Have you had any ideas for yours?

The colors were chosen to represent the couples favorite colors. Hers: teal. His: green. The center print is a combination of all of the colors. I use it to represent the couple - with 2 lives now becoming 1 entertwined with parts of each other.

I have a 2nd one that I will be starting next week. My nephew's wedding is the 30th. Their colors are - Him: black & grey. Her: blue & green. Theirs is definitely going to "pop" a lot more that my cousin's. She likes muted, mellow...so hers turned out perfect.

I can't FMQ at all!! I think that's why I'm not sure what to do here. Do you think all straight stitching would be boring? I was thinking of making some chains in the largest outer strips of each block (those I can draw and just straight sew on them). I'm going to go stare some more and wait to see what you come up with LOL.
