This summer my niece, Lyra, married the love of her life, Jesse. Their wedding was held on Mt. Desert Island, Maine, at the home of Jesse’s grandparents. It was a most beautiful location and created a background setting that is normally only seen in movies. Our family came from all over to enjoy a week of activities and then the wedding celebration.
The Newlyweds!
So lovely...
So, my gift to them was a quilt created from a collection of fabrics they chose. They live in Cambridge, MA, where the winter days can be short and cold, so this bright, cheery quilt should warm their home and give them something to snuggle up with together! Congratulations and many blessings to Lyra & Jesse! Love you!

A week after this special day, Janelle’s Orlando roommate got married! Kara and Eric had a wonderful wedding event, even though it poured down rain and the ceremony had to be moved inside. Here’s a few photos of that special day.
Since Janelle is also a quilter, she had the privilege of creating this cute quilt for K&E:

Then in September, Janelle’s roommate from college, Kara (yes, the same name) and Joshua got married. Their wedding was held at a refurbished Trolley Barn outside of Atlanta. It was a beautiful day and the event had all of Kara’s special vintage, artsy touches. So fun. What a great celebration.
The quilt I made for them reminded me of Kara’s dainty ways and her love of vintage styles. I hope they have many happy memories snuggling together under it!
Love in a basket for J & K

The Newlyweds - Kara & Joshua
Many happy wishes, blessings, and prayers to Kara & Joshua! A very special couple indeed! Love to you!
