I finally finished the wedding quilt I was working on. It is a very generous queen sized quilt that is reversible. The quilting I did on it includes quilting in the ditch (don't look too closely!!!), stippling and meandering. It is for the oldest daughter of our best friends. I will see if I have enough fabric to make some matching pillowcases with their names embroidered on each. I hope to send it off on Monday. Thanks for looking!

Thank you! I got the pattern off the Craftsy website. It is called 'Chocolate Kisses - A Wedding Quilt" by MorelCabin Creations. She has another wedding quilt similar to this one and I plan on doing it for whoever in the family gets married next. I guess I should try to get a head start and start on it before they are even engaged! That would mean I was on top of things....which I'm not! lol

Go girl, You are ahead even in planning it now..Will look forward to seeing your next one
Thank you for sharing location of pattern.

Thanks! I need a lot more practice before I will be real happy with my quilting. But u sure are right about how tired your arms get! Even as my husband was holding the quilt so i could take pics, his arms were getting tired! It is pretty heavy, that is for sure!

This was the first quilt that I have done that is reversible. If they get tired of one side, they can just turn it over for a different look.
