My pal Jen's daughter entered into wedded bliss this past June. The reception was at her pal Jen's home in Harper's Ferry, WV on a gloriously sunny afternoon.
Paper flowers, buntings, a beautiful garden and the colors of coral and blue set the theme...
(always a kid playing with fire!)
...as did borrowed quilts from family and friends.
The invite was a beautiful photo of the gorgeous couple and I was inspired!
This one was very, very hard to give away but I did and they love it!
I've entered this in the Art category at the Blogger's Quilt Fest. Calling something like this art is always sort of iffy but if I could have painted it then it would be art right? So I painted with fabric!!:)
Shenandoah River....almost heaven!
