Quilt Sandwich

All my paper pieced foxes are done and sewn together, so now it's time for a delicious batting sandwich! Here is a picture of everything basted together:

Bonus points for mismatched socks!

I've also come to terms with the fact that quilting/sewing is an art and NOT a science. So therefore I am going to accept the fact that there will be mistakes! While sewing together all the strips of foxes, they somehow ended up at different lengths across the bottom. So I had to add some patches of fabric to each column to get everything to the same length. You can see that the column on the far left has much less green below it than the column on the far right! But that's okay, because overall it's still an awesome quilt!

Wedding Planning

So this isn't something that I've crafted myself, but I am still super excited about it! Our wedding keeps becoming more and more Lord of the Rings themed (invitations, cake), and I wanted to continue that trend with the centerpieces for the reception tables. I found an Etsy shop that sells twelve different prints of various locations in Middle Earth, so we are going to have seating assignments based on them! I got all twelve in an 8" x 10" size, and am planning on getting some cheap frames from the dollar store for displaying them. The best part is that after the wedding we will have a lot more art for the apartment! Bonus!

She also has similar styles of prints for Star Wars, Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, and more! They would make great gifts for the geek in your life. :)
