Lots more quilting than I planned to do but it was needed to keep the borders from being too wavy and the area around the applique too fluffy.
And given to the bride at the rehearsal dinner on Friday night.
And Craig checking it out.
And the happy couple.
When I was making a label for the quilt, I text Kelsey to help me come up with a name for the quilt. She was NO help. lol So I decided on "Becca's Wedding Quilt". Original, huh?
After I finished embroidering the main label, I made another label to tell the story of the quilt. Then I decided that I would also have Kelsey and Larry write Becca a message.
And then I decided that she also needed a message from Craig also. So now, Becca's Wedding Quilt has a label in each corner and one in the center from her husband.
Happy snipping, stitching, and quilting!
I think it's fabulous. Lucky bride!
