Early Reveal

If you have been a regular reader of mine, you know that I have been making wedding quilts...in fact 3 for weddings this year!  
One of them is for my DD2 and future SIL for their wedding this July. 
I have given sneak peeks before here and here. 
Well, for a very special reason which I cannot tell yet, 
I will now give a bigger {yet not complete} reveal of their quilt.  



This pattern is called Lover's Knot! 
Isn't that perfect for a wedding quilt? 

It is put together in a similar manner as a log cabin with a little twist. 
The fabric I used is from the Eden collection by Lila Tueller for Moda.  The backing is a yellow polka dot with some piecing from the collection.  
It finishes at about 78" x 90".
Isn't it so pretty?

    It is gorgeous! I have the fabric bought for my daughter that is getting married this summer but it will not be done. It is not even cut out. Just a pile of washed fabrics. How lucky your daughter is getting married in a friends back yard. I am worried about how ours will look. We have only lived her going on 4 years and I am still experimenting with what will grow here. So much sand and in the middle of the woods with a lot of critters to keep an eye on. Thanks for coming by!

    First, congratulations to the bride and groom, and many blessings. Secondly the quilt is so lovely and the colors go together so nicely with that pattern. I love the look of the border.
