This is my attempt at a memory cloth for my lifelong friend Andrea and husband Julian on their Golden Wedding. What does not show up well on the photos is the names of Bridesmaids and Best Man on the sides. They do not want gifts but hope to get away with this.

oh my goodness - this is lovely! I know they said no gifts but this isn't an ordinary gift. The initials look great and everything looks so nice.The church is amazing! Is that stitched or a photo transfer? Either way this is a very thoughtful gift and I know they will treasure it. What a labor of love on your part. Thank you so much for sharing this.

Its beautiful. I am trying to think of something for my close friends also. What do you get for people who have everything and if they don't, they go and buy it. She doesn't embroider so thought that would be something I could do for them. They also don't want a fuss or gifts.

This is a lovely and very thoughtful project. I'm sure they'll be absolutely thrilled that you went to so much trouble to put their memories into stitches. Nice work!

A great gift! It expresses much better than a reg store card could. I am sure your friends will cherish this.

Such a lovely gift, I think they'll be delighted and use it for years.
I remember what we did for my grandparents' golden wedding in 1961 (I thought they were very old at the time) and for my parents' in 1986 (organised the celebrations and made a quilt and thought they were young for their age). Can't believe we will be celebrating our own in October (and think we aren't old at all!).

Absolutely not!
Well, you certainly aren't!
Hihi Mops, no we follow you end of December for 50 years and feel not old either. Long may it last!!!
I can tell you now that Julian had a heart transplant in 1987 so how about that.
Mops, Shakespeare would say "the worm turns". Congrats on your upcoming festivities and hope you have grand plans. Gillemerson - the cloth is beautiful and such a thoughtful thing to create.
