As you know, loyal readers, I rarely do quilts on request. And I don't do commissions or take orders. The cost is typically much more than people are willing to pay for, and it takes a lot of effort to make one of these lovely comforting quilts. I prefer to make what I like, and sometimes try to make a quilt with fabrics carefully selected for a special person.
However, I'm up for baby quilts and the occasional quilt for an amazing person. And that is the case at the moment, when my dear mother asked if I would make a wedding quilt for someone special. She knows to ask well in advance of the time that it will be needed.
Here's the fabric and rough plan - you can see the pattern I'm starting from. But, dear readers, I will be veering off to a slightly different arrangement and have a plan for pieced text for the back. I'll keep you posted on progress - this is a project I'll work on while also trying to get caught up on UFOs this year.
Is this your first wedding quilt? Excited to see how it turns out
ReplyDeleteIt's my second wedding quilt - I made one for someone at work a few years ago. But this will be a larger quilt and include a unique backing for the couple. I think it's going to be amazing.
