What's your Favorite?

I am often asked, "What is your favorite quilt?"

Well, while my answer may change. Maybe I haven't made my favorite yet....that is an exciting thought!

I would have to say, at the moment, my favorite quilt would be the Pickle Dish inspired by Kathy Doughty of Material Obsession...

I love the colors and the movement in this quilt, but tied with 'favorite' is the Sarah Fielke quilt that I made for my daughter and son-in-law as a wedding gift...

and I would have to include in my list of favorite quilts...a little courthouse steps quilt inspired by Purl.

I think of this quilt often...it was gifted to a new baby...

so now it is your turn! I would love to hear about your favorite quilt!
EDIT: I want to hear about the favorite quilt made by you! I appreciate all the kind comments, but maybe your favorite will be my next favorite too ;) Yay!

happy tuesday

They Are Here! Enjoy the Magic!

We have been pouring through the pictures from the wedding {the Wedding of the Century, as my daughter has dubbed it!}

I thought I would share a few with you....it was such a fun day!

Molly and Kyle were married on April 27th. at St. Andrew Catholic Church in Upper Arlington, Ohio...

the flowers were mainly tulips....yellow and white....

the color scheme for the wedding was yellow, grey and white....

of course, my daughter, Molly, was the bride....but my other two daughters were bridesmaids...

Maggie was the maid of honor and the best man was the groom's brother....

the bridesmaids wore grey silk halter style dresses and yellow shoes...

my youngest daughter, Mary, was a bridesmaid....her escort was the groom's cousin....

I love the details....and the triple tied bridesmaids bouquet was a perfect detail. We carried the same grey and white stripe french ribbon throughout the wedding and reception....

The brides bouquet...
