Yes, I know that it's three weeks

... since Nadie and Chris' wedding, and you still haven't seen a 'finished' photo of their quilt.
No I didn't forget.
With the having the flu, and then the recovering from the having the flu and all, it just got put in the too hard basket ... or rather, the 'too damn heavy' basket.
It's a BIIIIIG quilt, and it weighs a tonne/ton [ feel free to choose your preferred system of weight measurement ] so I pretty much haven't had enough oomph in me to hold it up for long enough to pin it to the design wall ... and to move the sewing tables out of the way as well.

that situation was finally rectified on the weekend, and Chris [ who has a better camera than I do ] took this shot for me.
and even though it's pinned at ceiling height, it's still on the carpet a bit.
Told you it was big!

and just to prove that it WAS finished on time and was indeed at the wedding, here's the extremely mediocre shot I took of it spread over the couch in the Bride's Retreat at Chateau Wyuna.
Now you can see why I waited to get a decent shot before posting
