My nephew got married on Sat. and this is what I did up for the gift.

A bath towel, hand towel, face cloth and a pillow case each. I have a machine error on his bath towel - the machine decided not to stitch the first part of the underlay and when I noticed it, it was too late to try to fix it, so I left it and thought I would tell them that and to return it to me after to fix. Then I remembered that story I heard some time ago that natives make their quilts with one mistake on purpose to indicate they are not perfect and make mistakes! so I thought that sounded great and have decided to leave it as is.

Lovely work. While we are aware of mistakes that occur the recipients are oblivious. Love the pink and blue its a great idea and one for me to remember

They still look fabulous and as it's the boy one, he most probably won't notice. Such beautiful gifts for newlyweds. Well done Linda, love Chris
