Last week I had the honor of attending the wedding of my dear friend, Marla. She was a beautiful bride and has a handsome husband. I gave them a quilt and hope they think it is beautiful, too.
I pieced the top in my hotel room in Virginia last week, in between the tornado warnings. I quilted it when I got home and finished the binding with hours to spare. (Yay me!)

Be sure to check my blog later this week. I am hosting a quilt along for
