Wedding Quilt Update

A frost yesterday morning, brrr, time to starting lighting the fire, in the evenings at least.

I've finished the indigo quilt, with the addition of little tassels and buttons on each corner.  Judi, the close-ups are especially for you :-)

Now for an update on the wedding quilt.  I had determined to do Double Wedding Ring, with some trepidation.  I have allowed myself, not unwillingly, to be talked out of it, on the grounds on time restraints, non-authenticity with the Jane Austen period, limitations of quilting possibilities, difficulty and fiddliness (is that a word?), boredom of repeating the same block again and again - you can see it didn't take much to persuade me.  I have, however, found a DWR design fabric (from Red Rooster, one of the Elm Creek Quilters' fabrics) that I will incorporate into the quilt which will now be a Medallion design.  The central block will be a True Lovers' Knot, in bias tape Celtic knotwork style.  I have some planning to do but am making progress and will go fabric shopping very soon.  I need to get started, April will be here very soon.
