Chris and Becky are on their way here for the weekend to finalize the last details for the wedding. Since I'm going to give them the quilt to take back with them I can finally post a picture.
My Mom helped by piecing the blocks which I sewed together and then quilted. I think you can see the quilting better in the second picture - it's a pantograph but I think it suits the quilt.
I just realized when I went to post these pictures that I took them before I did the binding. I'll have to take a final picture before I let the kids take the quilt home.

Maria I have seen all your works are wonderful, that you are become fond of to the reading, you drink books as we say here in Spain jajaja.Además that many of your works are donated for social work. As it goes with your lost one of weight? And the preparations of the wedding of your son? Saludos from distant spot ahhhhhhh that pain that America this so far.........
Mary, both quilts (wedding and autumn) are fantastic! Did you use a pattern for the wedding quilt?
The wedding quilt is gorgeous. Is that a Single Irish CHain? Your choice of colors and placement is perfect.
Both this one and your autumn quilt are beautiful. I just love your colors!
Neat I love how scapyy it is & that pattern - double 4-patch right?
That quilt is GORGEOUS! They are going to love it! What a special gift.
It's stunning and will be cherished by Chris and Becky for many, many years!
Oh, Mary, it's just WONDERFUL!

I feel like I am just repeating everybody in saying that this quilt is gorgeous. I like the wonderful fabric selection and the pattern you selected sets them off so nicely. Thepiecing is well executed, and the quilting as well as the fabric selection softens the pattern.
The quilt is georgous --the colors and the quilting! THey will cherish this forever.
i love the quilting you've done on the wedding quilt. I'm sure they will treasure it.
And your Autumn quilt top looks beautiful. Love the borders you have chosen. Well done.

Fabulous quilt, Mary! Totally different look than your green version. You really crank out the beautiful quilts.

Also love the autumn quilt. Your color sense is just wonderful!

What a beautiful quilt--isn't it amazing how sometimes the simplest quilt patterns done in two colors can be so smashing? You did one even better by making it a bit scrappy, adding more interest. And what a wonderful gift--AND it's done before the wedding! :)
That quilt looks good enough to eat. Reminds me of chocolate covered cherries.. Yum..........
I agree with Passionate Quilter! The simplest pattern can be the most striking! I did one close to this pattern in orange. I'm NOT an orange person, but I LOVE that quilt!
