Wedding Quilt

We can finally do the BIG reveal...

This is a wedding quilt 

for one of our own...

This has been top secret since April...

Now that Rachelle's had her wedding,

we can tell you all about it!

Rachelle has been part of our quilting group since she was a girl,  and now she is married.  We just had to celebrate this event with a wedding quilt for her and her husband.

This quilt reflects Rachelle's love of color!

This quilt has been stitched with love

by everyone in our group.

Congratulations Rachelle and Tyler
