This little bed topper is 60" by 60" and was commissioned by my dental hygienist. I have known Bev for 10 years. She knows my parents and their journey, and I heard of her mother's Alzheimer's diagnosis. Bev's daughter married last summer in Michigan, but they also made a special trip to Florida and had a small ceremony with Bev's parents prior to the big wedding. And shortly thereafter Bev's mother died. This quilt is a combination of a wedding dress, the grandmother's blouse, and the grandfather's shirt. The black is the blocks is from the sash of the wedding dress. This is a sweet project, and I am pleased to have worked with Bev and her daughter on this.

I find the way in which you intertwined the different fabrics to be very interesting. Well done. How will you quilt it?
