The last weekend in June, we traveled to see part of my husband's family. They had recently moved to a new state and chose to downsize. Their daughter had graduated college and had moved back home until her graduate school started. We had a wonderful visit and really didn't want to come back home. (Sister-in-law took me to two wonderful quilt shops while there! Big mistake!!!) Anyway, here are two projects that I had done for them.
Mug rug for graduate....
We lovingly call her the Diva....princess with attitude! She and my granddaughter got along almost too famously!!!
wall hanging for brother-in-law and wife
However, while we were there, we found out that their son is getting married on Labor Day...this Labor Day! Guess what got added to my "to do" list!!

Lovely gifts you made and I can't wait to see what quilt you make for the wedding gift
ReplyDeleteGreat gift!
ReplyDeleteIt's never ending, isn't it? I had a friend a few years ago who made a quilt out of the bride's wedding dress and gave it to them on their 25th anniversary (only weeks after finishing).
The mug rug certainly looks fit for a "diva"! I haven't made any house blocks yet - yours looks great. I may have to add them to my to-do list.
ReplyDeleteDiana....your wall hanging and mugrug are very sweet! And now.....get busy on that wedding gift.....Labor day is less than 2 months away! Yikes! Really? There goes the summer! :o(
ReplyDeleteBoth projects are great. You are keeping busy. Have a great 4th. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteHehe :D I've got a wedding quilt to start working on, too! Isn't it lovely to have the perfect excuse to work up a new project?
ReplyDeleteWhat perfect gifts! YIKES! Two months to get a wedding quilt finished! You can do it. I have faith in you. Now get busy! LOL

Very nice gifts. I've been looking for a house pattern to make a quilt for AAQI in memory of my mom. This one may be THE ONE! It's very pretty but leaves room for added embellishments.....just what I'm looking for.
ReplyDeletejoli cadeau pour la petite diplômée !!!!!!
ReplyDeletetu vas sans doute travailler pour le mariage
