    If I am not sure whether a bed sized quilt will be used I make a wall hanging or a throw quilt as a gift.

    Absolutely! Make and give what YOU wish and what you think is just right for the bride and groom.

    A throw is much more versatile and more likely to be used.

    My how cozy that would be. They can use it by the fire place or snuggled up on the couch to watch a favorite movie. As years go by they might even want to lay it on the floor and sit with a little one. That quilt will have lots of memories.

    It is your gift to give. Give them what you want them to have.

    I have finished and sent off two throw size quilts to my two GD's for wedding gifts!
    They were manageable on my DSM. Still waiting to here from the girls

    Why not make a picnic quilt and add a matching picnic tote. Picnics are very romantic.
