Last month we traveled to Tennessee to watch Pete's daughter Summer get married. The wedding was in Lebanon in a beautiful woodsy chapel. Summer was absolutely radiant and so was Matt. The ceremony and reception was intimate with just close friends and relatives. The reception was a lot of fun and there was much dancing.
Congratulations! We wish them the best on their journey together!
I started on the wedding quilt as soon as I heard, but had possibility paralysis! I know Summer is a strong Christian and has very modern taste. For the fabric, I chose Natalie Barnes Maker's Home and lots of Kona Silver.
This gave me a chance to play with my Quick Curve Rulers by Sew Kind of Wonderful and leave lots of wide open space for custom quilting. I have been Pinterest stalking Judi Madsen and all related quilters. I have two of her books and just love her work.
We stayed with some friends in Heritage, Tennessee, Sandra and Tony Usher. Sandra is a friend of mine from the EZQ Quilters in Southern California. She moved to Tennessee the same year I moved here. I miss her and my quilter friends from So Cal so much. A very talented and fun bunch of women.This a view from their back porch, there are dear in the background looking to score some goodies.
Here is one of her beautiful quilts! Gorgeous work. Sandra has always had such wonderful taste.
More about our vacation next week!
I hope you take the time to quilt this week!
Love Aunti Nicole
