A King Size Wedding Quilt!

My son married the love of his life just over a year ago. I hoped to have their wedding quilt done before their first anniversary. And I made it! Though there were moments I was not at all sure…… I had already started on the quilt when my dear son called to tell me that they had purchased a king size bed. What? I have NEVER made a quilt this big. Time to add more blocks! It wouldn’t fit on my machine quilting frame so I added the borders in a quilt-as-you-go fashion.

My bed is queen size and I took this pic before I sent the quilt. Here is the back:

I decided I was only going to make one quilt this size so it may as well be double sided!

I chose this pattern because it looked like Z’s and A’s to me for Zach and Anna. This is definitely not my most intricate work but they seem to like it. The top is freemotion quilting with little hidden messages to the happy couple.

Until next time…
