Wedding Confetti - A finished Quilt

My Little Sister Eden got married on the Weekend.

She had a beautiful beach wedding and reception at my parents house.

It was so nice to be able to have the wedding at home, although.....we have been soo busy the last few weeks organising and making sure we covered every detail. I'm excited to share parts of the wedding with you soon... Beautiful Photos, Table settings, Our Candy Buffet/Dessert Table, I made her a bling tulle garter (maybe throw in a tute?? I wish i had one before i made hers!)

And.... as well as all the usual wedding plans/organising, i was behind the scenes making her a surprise wedding gift.... a Quilt! ...Of course!

Being as though it was a "Lovey" Wedding Pressie... I wanted it to have a love heart in the centre with some sort of modern design around the outside.

I had remembered Kate's cute baby quilt "Scattered Showers" she had made a little while back. Kate even has the Pattern Available for you HERE. I thought it would look perfect having scattered pieces of fabric around the outside. I was hoping it would look like a flutter of petals or confetti dropped around the outside.

I had been hoarding this great Nano Iro bundle for a couple years now just waiting for the perfect project. The fabric is a double gauze cotton cloth. Its really soft and light but can be a bit delicate painful to work with.

I pieced the back.. and Quilted it by hand and machine...Starting with a smaller heart in the centre and followed the same heart shape out to the edges.

It was such a beautiful day....

Congrats on your Marriage Josh and Ede!! I am so so happy for you... I would be even happier if you weren't packing up and moving to Canada for a few years. But i guess, time will go quick, and whenever you feel homesick you can wrap up in your Quilt and know how much I love you....

and miss you....
