My niece is getting married tomorrow. Here is the quilt I made as a wedding present for them. It was a kit I purchased a couple of years ago - Garden Charm. My first attempt at applique which wasn't an easy feat because of my wrist issues but I modified a bit & viola, I did it! I think I've finally graduated from Novice quilt maker to maybe Intermediate?

It's doesn't match any decor she has decided to use and ironically the backing is actually a better fit. They are going to be living in a small one bedroom tiny house (my Mom's) & already has her white comforter set. She will undoubtedly store it at my sisters. I hope when they build a house she will find a use for it.
I also made a pillow topper, made w/leftover fabric, but it is waaaay to busy to be used w/the quilt.
I will finish this & use it on the island at the Barn Apartment & will make her another that is more toned down.
We've got a wedding to attend!

Honey, you are waaaay beyond the intermediate quilter stage. Appliques and all! Gorgeous!
Thank you my friend! I am proud of it.
Thank you Mama Pea. I am so much more comfortable than when I first began. Practice, practice ...
It's absolutely gorgeous! What a keepsake. I know they will treasure it forever.
I don’t think I’ve seen anything more beautiful! You’ve left “intermediate “ in the dust!
Thank you Leigh.
Thanks Susan. I took my time with this one.
