The Wedding Quilt

So after a short vacation to visit the family, I have started back working on the wedding quilt! The feathered wreath medallions are coming along nicely! As you can see from the pictures, there has been a few more added to the quilt, with the stitching in between yet to be completed. I am not sure yet if I am going to do a simple cross pattern in between or perhaps incorporate different scenes from the kid's lives. (i.e.: a tea cup for Meghan and wooden shoes for Don!). Still to be determined. But it is really coming along and I feel like I am making progress!

Not the best picture but you get the idea!

A work in progress!

Vintage movies!

I have been rather MIA lately as I was out of town for the July 4th holiday. Spent some time with the family back in Mass. I plan to get back working on the Wedding Quilt very soon so expect some posts showing the recent progress!
In the meantime, look what the nice UPS man delivered today! I love old movies and these were three that I ordered recently from Amazon. I have an ongoing list of movies that I "always wanted to own" but never got around to buying. These are 3 of my very favorites!
Peyton Place:  Sex, scandal and Lana Turner. What more could you want?!
Splendor in the Grass: A lovely Natalie Wood, a gorgeous Warren Beatty and more drama than you can shake a stick at! And as far as vintage fashions go, the white dress that Deanie wears in the last scene where she visits Bud out on the farm: Stunning!!
The Long Hot Summer: Paul Newman. Smoldering heat.  Nuff Said!!

What are some of your favorite old movies?   :)
