Cody's Wedding Quilt

As I left for the wedding a few weeks ago, all I had left on the quilt to do was tack down the binding and sew on a label. I decided not to carry the quilt on the plane and would mail it up after the fact.

Cody, one of my favorite my nephews, lives near Roslyn, WA, a small town that is so beautiful, lush and green and made the perfect backdrop for him to merry Jessica. All of the activities were done out side. The wedding was on a hill top called French Cabin Creek and the reception was at another beautiful outdoor location near their home. It had started to rain...but it was only a moment when a double rainbow appeared.

I think, seeing that double rainbow, means something good for them for sure.

I loved how family and friends came together to help with the set up and prepare all the wonderful food that was served. I think the most unique thing they did was have an Ice Cream Truck come into the reception area and serve as much ice cream and candy as anyone wanted. Pretty cool, pretty different...all the little and big kids a like loved it.

I was so glad I waited to send up their quilt. I was able to capture this great picture of Cody, Jessica and their girls just moments after saying there vows. I printed the picture on a fabric sheet for the label to put on the back of the quilt. The caption below the picture reads:
