I made a quilt for my DS and his beautiful fiance. She chose the colors and even chose the fabric from a piece I had in my stash. Luckily, I had just bought it and was able to go back and get several yards. We had a wedding shower for them yesterday and I gave them the quilt. They were so excited.

I was playing on ebay one day and saw this pattern for sale. It was a page out of a magazine and was called Writer's Block...no other info was listed. I tried to win the pattern, but someone else wanted it even more than I did. I played around with the pattern in Excel and this is what I came up with after adding my own border. I don't know what size the squares were in the pattern, but mine are 1 1/2 inches finished and there are 2,365 of them total (green & white). (Thank goodness for strip piecing!) I wish I could give credit to the original designer, but, after hours of searching on the internet, I couldn't find who it was.

I am so proud of my son and couldn't ask for a better daughter-in-law! I love them both very much!!

The colors are little off. The green is sort of a two tone pear green color.

It's as beautiful as they are!!

Congrats to you for the new addition to your family. Your quilt is lovely and the label is perfect. Wishing much happiness to you all.

beautiful quilt and a cute couple. Good luck to them.

Beautiful....both the quilt and couple and the label is beautiful

You did a beautiful job with the quilt and your DS and soon to be DDIL are precious together!

The quilt is beautiful, the kids look very happy and your quilt label turns it all into a treasure.

WOW!!! What an awesome quilt and couple to match. I love the label that you placed inside the quilt. Did you make it yourself? Congrats :-) :-)

WOW...stunning quilt..absolutely love the color. Your Son is very handsome and looks like you will be gaining a beautiful DIL. Congrats to you and them. My Son will be getting married next year in the fall, it truely is an exciting time.

Beautiful quilt for the happy couple.

Thanks. I have another smaller quilt I am doing for them in their wedding colors (red, black and white) that will have several of their pictures on it. It will be displayed at the rehearsal dinner and at the reception. April 23rd will be here before I know it!

Good luck to your daughter and on getting the quilt done.

Absolutely gorgeous, the quilt and the couple!! It is a very unique pattern, I really like it. My son is in a serious relationship, so I see a wedding quilt in my future, possibly two years from now when they finish college! :)

The label is priceless! I can see why they loved it so much. Best wishes to them both and congratulations on your new daughter!

Gorgeous quilt!! Absolutely love it. congratulations on the new addition to the family, and on the wonderful addition to theirs!

Thanks. I did make the label myself. I created it in Word and printed it on injet printable fabric by Dritz called Printed Treasures. It is a little high, but it is washable and has a high print quality. I have used regular fabric ironed onto freezer paper, but the pictures don't look as good. I just printed a black and white picture for this label, but I am working on a picture quilt for them to display at the rehearsal dinner and at the reception that has color photos and the colors are wonderful!

I appreciate this information. I hope you place a photo of the quilt that your going to make for the rehearsal dinner. Your very talented :-)

Beautiful Quilt. I'm sure they will treasure it for years and years
Congrats to the happy couple :!:
