Oh it was so hard not to blog about this, or to tell Al about her wedding quilt. Brian's aunts (I think) sent everyone who was invited to the wedding a quilt square and loose instructions. I knew exactly what I was going to do. *** Go back 4 years ***
Setting: Allison & Carrie are in their Eggers dorm and are packing to move.
I like to think this is how it happened:
Carrie: What should we do with these hideous bright orange curtains?
Allison: Oh throw them away! I never want to see them ever again!
Carrie: Give them to me.
Carrie's Mind Thinking: Muahahaha, yes you will see these curtains again!
And she did!
I used the fabric from our awful Eggers curtains to make part of my quilt square for their wedding quilt. I found this adorable Amy Butler fabric that matched perfectly. Also, my mom and I made an apron out of it that turned out well. All in all, it was a wonderful surprise for them and check out this quilt, what a labor of love!
