It was a beautiful day! It had been so hot the day before (90 something and humid), but the weather broke and it cooled to about 82. There was a breeze.
I am not a writer. . . I am a quilter, so bare with my choppy words, as I share about the wedding and the table runners. Jewels asked me to make seven quilted table runners.

She wanted them in greens and creams with kind of a vintage look. I was to make them all different. Even different sizes.

I made some with tea dye muslin and some with cream muslin. One of them, I used a white on white tiny flowered fabric. Nothing was to match. All unique!

Some I quilted with a looser meandering with leaves and others were tighter. I really enjoyed making them!

Jewels asked us to collect assorted vintage plates for her wedding. Our friend, Bette took on the task. She selected a beautiful collection of dinner and cake plates.

The flower arrangements on the tables were created with wild flowers and displayed in vintage blue canning jars. They really looked great with the plates!

And now a few wedding photos. We don't have any professional ones yet... so these are some we all took during the ceremony and reception.

Jewel's Siblings Jewels and Rad Rad's Siblings
Jewels and Rad had their sisters and brothers be their attendants. Another thing that I thought was so cool.

I hope you enjoyed getting up close with my quilting and my family too!
Enjoy your day!
