My entry is this wonderful Double Wedding Ring quilt that I made for my brother when we went over to Baltimore USA for his wedding in June 2008. He and the lovely Mary tell me they treasure it and are using it as I have asked them to. I always get cranky when my quilts don't get used.
I used 2 Moda Shangri-La Jelly rolls for the rings and quilters muslin for the background, it was professionaly quilted and then I did the binding during the evenings in our Hotel room in the 2 weeks before the wedding.
The photo is a little odd as I had to take it on the floor of the Hotel room. But the 2nd photo is the best, they unwrapped it specially at their reception so I could take a photo of them in their quilt and their wedding finery.


So head over to have a look at some of the entries, its so worth the time and there are some great sponsors that have donated prizes.
