Over the Weekend

...my "baby" brother got married:


The wedding was beautiful, with no major catastrophes. 

Even better, my oldest niece attended the wedding and I got to spend some time visiting with her.  I think it may have been 3 or 4 years since I have seen her.  After my brother (her father) passed away, my niece's mother has not made it easy nor has she encouraged my niece to visit with our side of the family.  I am grateful that she brought her to the wedding and the reception and that I was able to spend some time visiting with her!

Of course, we couldn't let the opportunity for a photo pass us by:


I sure hope that it's not another 4 years before I get to see my oldest niece again!

P.S. I FINALLY got my sewing machine back from the shop...after 4 weeks!  So now, I am furiously working on the quilt for my brother and his bride!  I hope to have it finished by the time they return from their honeymoon.  I think they are going to love it!

Great photos.

I don't think your brother/sis-in-law will like the quilt --- i KNOW they will LOVE it. You do such beautiful sewing.
