Wedding Present finished just in time!
 

Design is by Sue Daley - 'It Takes Two' the story behind this.... Friends of ours in South Africa - their daughter is getting married, I asked the mum what gift we could bring from here - horror , shock she said her daughter would love a quilt 2 days later the email arrived with her favorite colours - I have just finished and we leave in 2 days lol just struggling with the label of all things.
I don't understand why I have to do something I've never done before ie scalloped edges and a few other things! This is the quilt that had the pencil marks on it 2 days ago thanks to you all your help they've gone! I made place mats with the scraps for the parents - they didn't really turn out how I imaged!

Beautiful, I really like the scalloped edges. I don't think I've seen this pattern before, very nice.

Oh my goodness!!!!!!!! How many days (I hope weeks) did you have to get this BEAUTIFUL quilt made??? I hope the newly weds appreciate the effort and work that created this quilt.

Perfectly beautiful!! What size is it?

Ruth it is 60"x60" Supposedly lol

Absolutely beautiful. Lucky couple.

Nana2 about 4 months it had to be something I could do the majority by hand as I commute between Brisbane & Sydney and don't have a machine in the latter!

nicely done... love the edge treatment

THis really looks like a wedding quilt to me. I will get married again if you make me one! :)
