I made a bold promise to not waste this summer or let it get swallowed whole with wedding planning. I said I would a) learn to play the harmonica and b) make a quilt before my wedding. The harmonica education is coming along slowly, rather like learning an instrument does for anybody, but I am determined. You can ask anyone who knows me - I can play a mean "When the Saints Going Marching In."
The quilting has been more successful. Behold, me with my first quilt. I suspect many quilts of increasing complexity will follow, but there will never be a first quilt fraught with error and excitement and make-it-workivity.
Quilt, I will love you forever.

I love it! The quilt is beautiful! You should be very proud.
Beautiful! I've been saving old clothes of Z to make her a quilt in 10-15 years. Perhaps you have inspired me to begin sooner!
