Finished just in time

Just last night I finished binding my wedding present for Saturday.


It's my circle quilt from Julie's pattern.  I changed mine to make two small quilts. I love this quilt! I wouldn't be able to give this one up if I wasn't making two.


The fabrics are Fandango by Kate Spain. I did the quilting myself. I was initially going to leave the quilting as just the big "X's" but my batting required quilting every 2-4 inches so I did the straight lines along the seams too.

I puffy heart the back too! I think that was my favorite print from the line. I love using a big crazy print on the back. 
I hand wrote my label instead of using one of my printed labels because I wanted to use a quote about marriage. It says, "Marriage joins two people in the circle of it's love".  Then it has the couples names and wedding dates.

I hope they like it or I'll have to steal it back!!

    This quilt is simply gorgeous! I’m sure that the young couple will be very pleased… and those fabrics… absolutely beautiful.

    It's lovely! I have a layer cake of Fandango and have been contemplating what to do with it...
