Anniversary Photo Quilt

Post by quilt1932 » Mon Jul 16, 2007 3:46 am

Just finished this 25th Anniversary memory quilt for my son and his wife. The fabrics were all purchased online at QIAD and represent the colors of the wedding. I added white lace to represent the bride and the label on the back is mounted on a scrap from the dress I made as mother of the groom. The block pattern is Road to St. Louis because they went directly from the wedding to live in the St. Louis suburb of Florissant and have been there ever since.

My first time posting pictures. I'm trying to get a picture of the full wall hanging to show up.

Nadine, they are coming for a visit (with their 2 daughters and their dog) on August 2 and I plan to surprise them then with the wall hanging and an anniversary cake. Do you live beyond Florissant? Unfortunately, we tend to drive as far as Florissant and then head back to Ohio.
