My Daughter, Lana, is being married on the 13th, and I made 48 of these napkins for her. The design is from Sonia Showater. The H is calligraphy done by my dad, her Granddad. I then combined them and did the digitizing for the H. The napkins came from Bumblebee Linens and are called Hemstitched linen Dinner Napkins.

They each took just about forty minutes to complete. She loves them.

This is absolutely beautiful Jan. My best wishes for a wonderful wedding and I know these will be greatly appreciated by Lana. My thoughts are with you as you all prepare for this occasion. I know Ben would have loved to be there with you celebrating this wedding. Love and blessings Chris

That's sweet, but actually Ben just hated weddings - too much anxiety I guess he felt. But probably more that you had to wait to the end to have cake! For the last few weddings we learned to take decorated white cake from the bakery so he could eat cake right after the ceremony :-) You do what you have to do!

Absolutely beautiful! Your daughter will be thrilled to have such special linens for her wedding table and guests. You did a terrific job making these. And they are even more special since you and your dad had a hand in the design. Best wishes for the happy couple.
