Roland and Sebastien's Wedding Quilt

Just before they were married, I was checking in with Roland about a wedding registry, when I asked, "Instead of selecting something from your registry, what I would really like to do is make you guys a quilt.  How do you feel about that?"  Roland responded, "I didn't dare ask!  But we would love that!" 

So began the wedding quilt journey, in which we looked at pictures online,  decided on quilt colors, then shopped for fabric together.   This quilt took a very long time to complete, because of the quilting, but I had until their 1st anniversary, right? 

The pattern is a double disappearing nine-patch, designed by Kim Lapacek. 


It is quilted all over with "I love you" in various languages, because Roland works with people from all over the world, and Sebastien is from France.







This is the hand embroidered quilt label



I finished it up just before our move to NYC, in January 2015.  Since then, R&S have also moved, and I wish them well in their new adventure.

Lots of love guys!!

Peace,
Paula
