Wedding Quilt Finish!

I'm thrilled to be sharing another finish!

The photo is a bit sun dappled, but you can really see the quilting on the close-ups!

I made this quilt using the Urban Lattice pattern for some good friends who were married last Labor Day. I stitched the blocks in March and then had it quilted by the fantastic Shelly Pagliai of Prairie Moon Quilts. I had won a gift certificate for her services in a Tula Pink Sew Along last fall over at Sew Sweetness, and I was thrilled to use that toward finishing this quilt. 

I sent Shelly a photo of my quilt top and she sent back some sketched ideas. I love what we ultimately went with--simple, but modern and graphic. It's hard to see, but there's also a squiggle (using black thread) in the black sashing. 


Great texture!

I (finally!) got this bound and shipped off to my friends--they've seen the quilt top and liked it, but I think they'll absolutely love the finished product. Thanks Shelly!
