Something special

Before our wedding I went to my quilt group knowing we would be eating cake and have a couple of drinks to celebrate my impending marriage, and I was really looking forward to it. 

They gave me this




and sprinkled confetti all over me and my machine.


Each member of the group pieced a square, isn't it wonderful.  I was surprised, shocked, lost for words and loved their generosity.  I found out they had been having secret conversations and always without me knowing.

On my last day of work in came into the office to find this (taken with my phone)

 



Did you notice the little Green & Blacks chocolates stuck to each of the hearts?  They would be great favours (G&B 'Groom & Bride', get it?), why did I not think of it?

Here's a close up


I'm still finding confetti and chocolates in my shoes, drawers, documents and who knows where else I'll find it. 

I love how much thought and creativity went into each of surprises, they will always be two of my favourite presents.

Thank you,
Gx





P.S. Brambles enjoyed my quilt too (she was on it for the five seconds it took me to take this photo with my phone)
