It's official!!


We're getting married! Not that you didn't know that already because it's all that I've been blathering on about for months, but today we got our first response card back in the mail! WOOHOO!!!

I should have finished lovelies to show very soon. I'm working on Chloe's quilt now and have finished piecing the top of my camp quilt. Could it be that I could actually finish two quilts in under a month???

Almost there


I'm so close to being done with the invitations. And by done, I mean in the mail and gone. The picture above isn't great because the light in our dining room is HORRIFIC but you get the idea. Our sweet but evil wedding coordinator suggested that one of the ideas Scott had thrown out for the invitations would look great as the envelope liner. And once you hear a great idea like that, you can't unhear it. And so I knew immediately that I'd be cutting out 90 of those envelope liners and gluing them in. And don't even get me started on the envelopes. Those actually kicked off my one and only bridezilla moment and I had to lock myself in the bathroom alone for five minutes and think about what I had done.

The invitations are super fantastic (and yes, I do say so myself) and I can't wait for people to get them. (In fact, the response from my wedding coordinator was, and I quote, "Holy crap, they are awesome.") Scott has had some sparks of interest from two different event coordinators for future work so that's good too.

And I'm busy with lots of things - a few more odds and ends fun tasks for the wedding, a quilt for a local charity that runs a camp for children with cancer (hopefully more about that by the end of the week) and some sweet baby shower gifts for my soon-to-be niece Chloe. Yep. That little bit of sweetness finally has a name.
