Margo's Wedding & Bridal Shower Presents

When Tom & Kait got married Margo and I made them a quilt. So I thought I would make Margo and Dal one when I hear they were getting married. They got married just 5 weeks after getting engaged so I didn't have much time and it took forever to decide what design I wanted. I made my own pattern and used the stack-n-whack method to make this quilt. I finally started cutting and sewing on Thursday the 11th of August. Katrina, Clint's girlfriend, helped me two days and Clint, Dale's brother, helped me one day. I sewed it all together and added the border on Monday the 15th of August, tied it on Tuesday the 16th and bound it on Wednesday the 17. So we made this whole thing in a total of 6 days. Thursday Margo got her endowments out and Friday they got married. Yes I cut it short...too short. I never got a picture of it before I gave it away so the following pictures will have to do :) This is an up close front view of the quilt displayed at Margo & Dal's Open House in Cleveland, UT. Clint & Katrina also made the picture frame that is in front of the quilt.

I didn't get just a picture of the quilt at the Open House in Loa so here is a few different glances at it. In this picture is Dale's dad and my brother-in-law Phillip.

The one on the right is Dale's mom

This is Tom with his new baby boy Tait. Behind him is the quilt and wallhanging.

This is the wallhanging again and their backdrop in Loa.


For Kait's bridal shower I made her a wallhanging so Idecided to make Margo one also. This took me 5 days to desiwgn and make. I drew/designed the blocks. This is Margo displaying the wallhanging at her Bridal Shower.
