Design Wall

Here is what is up on my design wall. This is the signature quilt that I am making for my son and his new wife. I really wanted to have it made by last Christmas and as you can see that did not happen. Now my goal is to have it done by their first anniversary which is in July.

With Passion,
Carrie P.

What a beautiful anniversary gift it will be. I presume you collected signatures at their wedding reception. What a nice idea. And your colors are great. They will certainly cherish it.

Carrie this is priceless - I love the layout, very unusual and wonderful colours. See if you can work in at least 15 or 20 minutes per day - that'll keep the momentum going.

I love the design! July seems like a very reasonable goal. You can do it!

It has been 8 years, and I still haven't managed to finish my wedding signature quilt. Maybe this year will be the year. :)
