Here are 4 girls with me, including the 3 recipients.
(Morgan, Kelly, Amanda, me, Stephanie)
Quilt No. 1:
Who: Amanda
Why: Wedding on July 9
What: Queen size in red, black, and white
Amanda and I met in 2004 in the dorms at OSU. We became great friends and ended up being roommates for two years. She is fantastic and I really look forward to her and Robbie being married in 4.5 weeks!
This means I really need to get to quilting. I have it together, with about 1/4 of the quilting done. I expect another 6-7 hours of quilting and eons of binding.
Quilt No. 2:
Who: Morgan
Why: Wedding on August 21
What: Queen size in brown, green, orange, and purple
Morgan and I were roommates during my senior year of college (with Amanda, too!). We didn't really know each other when we moved in together, but it turned out to be an amazing friendship! I will be a bridesmaid in her wedding and I'm having bad dreams about getting to the wedding and forgetting my dress/shoes... I'm not stressed out at all!
I have about 1/4 of the quilt top put together for Morgan. Her quilt is a little simpler in some ways, so I expect 3 hours to get the top finished and 5-6 hours quilting, with the normal eons of binding.
Quilt No. 3:
Who: Stephanie
Why: Baby boy in August!
What: Little boy awesomeness
Stephanie and I were in a Bible study together during college and she became good friends with our house of girls (with Morgan and Amanda). She ran away to California after college where she met and married her lovely husband and eventually made a baby. I can't wait to see her belly at Amanda's wedding!
I have bought and washed the fabric for this quilt, but haven't even ironed it yet. I expect 1 hour to cut, 2-3 hours to piece, 2-3 hours to quilt, and shorter eons to bind.
I'll post pictures of them as they are each revealed to the girls! So excited :)
