Under the Sea

I finished the binding on this quilt on our trip down to the beach over the weekend.  I'm calling it Under the Sea because of the mermaid fabric and wave-like design in the piecing.  It is going to be a Christmas present for my 2-1/2 year old granddaughter.  She loves to go swimming and playing in water, so hopefully she will appreciate the mermaid theme.  The quilting is an all-over dolphin design done by the Gammill Girls at the Front Porch quilt shoppe.

Other than attaching a label to this quilt and the one for my younger granddaughter, I'm finished with my Christmas sewing for this year.

Something Blue

This quilt was a wedding gift for my other daughter who just got married on Saturday.  I really cut it close getting this one done on time.  I finished the binding and attaching the label on the day of the wedding about 4 hours before the ceremony was scheduled to start.  The picture was taken on one of the double beds in my hotel room where we were staying for the wedding.  I hate to be down to the wire like that, but sometimes it just happens. 

I'm really happy that it was done in time.  I believe she had the wedding photographer include it in some of the wedding pictures.  They really seemed to like it.  I'm happy about that, too.
