As avid CouchCam viewers are no doubt aware, I’ve been quilting my ass off here lately trying to get Kenya and Sal’s wedding present done in time for their nuptials next week. I’m happy to announce that the actual quilting stage is finally finished! Now I just have to finish the edges and embroider a message for them. With luck, I might have one or two fingers unbloodied to upload a picture for you when I’m done…

Awww, thanks! See, that’s what I’m hoping people will think. The bride and groom’s families are pretty well off, and I’ve heard that the gift registry has some pretty amazing stuff on it. I was starting to feel a little bad about my shabby homemade gift. But you’re right, they’re my friends and they know how much time and effort I’ve put into it. Sally’s sister actually asked me about it at the Hen’s Night last weekend, so she must be looking forward to receiving it!
And while you and Mark will be receiving many happy congratulations from me, I hope you’re not expecting a quilt this year! Maybe for an anniversary. I’m done quilting for a loooong time. 🙂
