Do you ever have a project that you know will be fantastic, but you just can't find the time to get it done? Well, for two years I have been planning and imagining how wonderful this
memory quilt was going to be. I was hoping to complete it for the wedding--I had envisioned it as a backdrop behind the wedding cake. Then, I thought, it would make a great first anniversary gift. Needless to say, I missed that date. But one sure fire way to complete a project is to make it a class sample. So this past year I offered a
trapunto by machine class, and yes, I was able to get it done.

The quilt also features,
shadow work trapunto,
photo transfer,
3-D machine embroidery designs by
A Bit of Stitch, lace and ribbon embellishments, and my husband's and my flowers from the wedding.
Even though the quilt didn't get finished when I thought it was appropriate, it was finished in time to share a memory with two important people in my life,
Jacob and Brooke. Congratulations on your first two years.
