Our 60th wedding anniversary has come and gone! A project I have enjoyed over the last couple of years was making small quilts to use as table decorations for our reception/celebration/hoopla.
I also made two long table runners for the food tables ---
a wool crazy quilt with memorable appliques for the registration
table ---
(Yes, that is a picture on the table of Bob and I on first date in 7th grade.)
a smaller runner for one of the memorabilia tables ---
there were 11 large, round tables for
guests ---
the garden flowers were arranged by my talented granddaughter,
Caitlin ---
my husband made the wooden boxes to hold the flowers ---
the flowers were gathered from our garden and the garden of a generous
friend ---
One of the round tables did not get photographed; plus several of the small quilts were not used.
As usual, I over-planned!!!
Being a quiltmaker and my husband a wood worker; it was a fun family effort. Then, to have our granddaughter work on the flowers was a bonus.
