This flower shaped quilt is my original design.
I already knew what I wanted to make.
My Daughter is getting married and asked me to be "The Quilter"
for this event and make custom quilts for her reception tables.
I will be making eight of the ones above,
and two smaller ones,
and a special one for the Bride and Groom's Sweetheart Table.
Her wedding color is royal purple and she chose the fabrics ...
The Bride's Choice
This wedding table quilt measures 33 inches across.

My Second Flower Project
I did have to experiment with the design and when it came time to quilt The Bride's Choice
This wedding table quilt measures 33 inches across.

The detail of the quilting on the back.
I will be adding a label in the center
with the names and wedding dates.
My daughter plans to give these to her new Mother-In-law
and Grandmother-In Law and her Bridesmaids.
My Second Flower Project
I finished this smaller quilt for her Guestbook Table first to try some of the quilting techniques, which includes a decorative stitch programmed into my machine ...
Hexagon Flower Quilt
For the Guestbook Table
We have a very special idea for the guestbook.
We are pressing the white daisy fabric in the center of the flower to freezer paper and cutting 6 inch squares
and we are going to provide fabric pens for the guest to
write their wedding wishes
so that they may be later sewed together into the backing
for her wedding quilt.
This table quilt measures 24 inches across point to point.

Many more quilts to make!
During my breaks from work I will be enjoying all the
flowering projects in this big beautiful blog hop garden.

Wowee! How marvelous...and kudos on being the "Wedding Quilter" (I think that sounds like a good title for a book!)....I love both the table toppers but...hmmm...since you're making me commit to just one...ah...ok...I pick the first. :)
Good luck with the wedding...the art/decorations will be simply awesome!
For some reason my comment posted twice...(that is why one shows removed)...but I forgot to say, thank you for always being so generous to make such great tutorials (I know how much time is involved) AND sharing them! (ok...if this posts twice I'll let YOU delete the second one...lol)
Lynn :))
Amazing! Your work is just stunning. I love the colors your daughter choose. The quilter, love the name. You have so much work ahead of you but how special this will be. Thank you for the great tutorial. And I missed the date of your daughter's Wedding but I know you will have them all ready. Thank you for sharing.
I just have to be honest... I REALLY LOVE the first design. It just looks more like a flower! That is such a cute idea! I follow your blog on Bloglovin'. sewfreshquilts (at) gmail (dot) com

That is a beautiful quilted piece. Before reading the full post I clicked to see how it was made. I would love to try that and I'm not really into piecing things together. Thanks for the giveway too.
Wow Pat!! You are busy there and doing fantastic work; I must say. I love each of them..but choose the second one...because I can't decide...lol. Thanks for sharing
Wow, really beautiful!
When your blog came up. the first thing I saw was that beautiful purple quilt. Wow Pat, wonderful ! And to think of how many your going to make ! Oh, what the love of a mother can do !
These are just gorgeous my Friend!! You do such beautiful work. What a great memory piece for the wedding couple/party.
Good Morning Pat...my first thought...I thought it was a fabric basket, then kept reading this is a table quilt....incredible..all the hues of purples, lilacs, mauves, makes it a very striking piece...wow!
So pretty. What a lovely flower.

Beautiful! My favourite is the guest table quilt. My husband wore stephanotis in his boutonniere at our wedding.
Oh, those are beautiful!! Your daughter is very lucky to have such a talented & generous mother! I think I prefer the first one as the rounded border makes it look more like a blossom. You can find me at elita dot sharpe(at)live dot com, removing the usual spaces. :-)

Oh, my! That is just the most beautiful purple quilted flower I've ever seen and I love the idea of using them on tables at a wedding. Such a wonderful reminder of a special day. :O)
Such a lovely post. The purples are spectacular and the quilts delightful. My favourite is the flower shaped one featured in the first photo. Of course I'd love to enter your giveaway too.
So pretty! Those would be gorgeous at a wedding. I like the flower shaped one better, but both are beautiful.
What BEAUTIFUL toppers. My favorite is the first one, the flower topper. I LOVE Hexes. What a lovely wedding this will be. Thanks for the giveaway.
And of course I follow you. Thanks.
What a beautiful idea for a wedding--and you did such a beautiful job making this tabletopper. I'll bet the reception room will look gorgeous!
AMAZING! I love them both. I have got to try my hand at hexies. Thanks for the giveaway.

These toppers are simply breathtaking! After the wedding, I am placing my order! And I now have an even greater need to pick up that ruler too- have been trying to justify buying one and now I have the perfect excuse!

Those are sooo beautiful and deserving of a top spot. I love your guestbook idea and that these beautiful table toppers will be gifts for the new in-laws and bridesmaids. I think I prefer the flower shape for a round table but the hexagon otherwise. Thanks for the tutorials too!

Wow, that's a fantastic idea for the wedding! I big job for you but what a lovely throught. ?? I like both shapes - maybe that's the beauty in that they won't all be the exact same. I love to try the flower piecing.
I have been following you with GFC.
What beautiful quilts! It's hard to choose, but the one for the sweetheart table is my favorite. You are doing a very special thing for your daughter. Thanks for sharing!
Absolutely Stunning!! I can not believe you are going to make that many quilts before the wedding. AND you work!!! You must be Wonder Woman!!
