    Default Re: Wedding Quilt....

    I am looking to make a wedding quilt for my niece, who happens to be named Mia! I googled quilt patterns using the words: Love, Wedding, Rings, Hearts, etc. I found a beautiful quilt on this site http://www.quiltingmom.com/Wedding.html[/URL] We selected the linked hearts. They show it in tan colors, but I'm making it in soft purples and blues, with a cream background. It looks hard, but I blew up the photo, and it really is a simple 4-patch design!

    I saw a tip that suggested you ask the gift recipient to select the quilt colors by picking out paint chips with their colors on them. Then you can take the chips to the quilt shop with you!

    I made this quilt for my daughter's bridal shower gift as she likes modern patterns. Clothworks made the pattern and you can go to their website and download it free along with many others.

    How about a signature quilt? These are for special occasions and easy to do with charm packs and jelly rolls. Leave the centers a solid color and then have family members sign a square for you. I am making one for my daughter now and all her bridal party signed the squares and I am embroidering what they wrote (Tip: keep it short or you will embroider for years!). Jenny has a video tutorial called Garden of Eden that shows this simple design. Post what you end up with; I would love to see it.
