Jo Morton was in the shop last week while

she was in town for Road to California.

She liked this little quilt and we had a great

time sharing quilts and inspiration.

Lucky Me!

 I was returning some stuff to the florist from the wedding today

and in the process picked up a treasure. Lucky for me she was

doing a little organizing and came across these little gems. Now

to decide how to set them, Any ideas, please share.

Want to make something similar?

here are the basics:

3" finished 9-patch - cut 1-1/2" squares

3-1/2" cut setting square.

What an honor to have "our" wedding

featured on Urban Style.



Happily Ever After . . .

 Thank You for letting me share our perfect day.



Before . . .

I don't usually put personal things on my blog

but I just can't resist. My oldest daughter is

getting married on Saturday and it is all wedding

around here. A "little" quilting is still going on

but that will be for later. I will post a few pictures

of what all this stuff looks like in a large tent

with twinkle lights and crystal chandeliers.

The tent arrives at 8:00 am tomorrow

 morning better get a goods night sleep.
