I had the two women who were giving her bridal showers to add to their invitations a request for each person to bring a fat quarter or (in case they had no idea) 1/4 yd of fabric in her wedding colors of dark red, dark orange and golden yellow. Some of those women had never seen the inside of a fabric store ! I then thought it would be interesting to embroider everyone's name who attended the wedding or was someway involved. Here are the results! And many thanks to my Dina who did the long arm quilt work - this had to be perfect ! Thanks for looking !
What a wonderful idea to have the guests bring fat quarters in the wedding colors and then embroider their names. A different type of memmory quilt for a wedding but I'll bet you see more of them now! :thumbup:
