... And a wedding

One of our forum members Audrey is about to get married. Carrie, who is brilliant with textiles came up with the idea or making a wedding present from us all. We had to design 4 squares 2.5 x 2.5 inches in jade and cream (ish!) and she very kindly took on the job of putting it all together.

They're also perfect for this week's Arty Girlz small art challenge and Crazy Amigos hearts

Here are the squares .....



... and here's the fabulous finished article.
