I can't believe that I've never shared photos of this incredible quilt that Rachel handmade for our wedding. It's grey with daisies and I absolutely love it! It has been the inspiration for mine and Jeremy's bedroom, which we are still perfecting. The only problem is… I'm afraid to let anyone touch it! (In this photo there was another sheet underneath for protection) I might love it too much. Thank you, Rachel. You're amazing.

Lovely quilt–I have never pieced ones with hexagons. Is it tied?

What a beautiful quilt! I wish I had the patience/skill to make something that adorable!
Oh my gosh this is SO cute!
xxoo
this is what they call super girl friends! haha
anyways, i like the quilt it look so cute and comfy.
I have a real thing for quilts. I always admire them when I spot them at antique stores and flea markets, but having a quilt made by a dear friend is even better! I feel like the sunny daises capture your personality perfectly, and I don’t blame you for being a bit of an overprotective quilt-mama. 😉
it does look like eggs! i love it!!!
Hi. It doesn’t bother me that people point out my (many) typos. In the near future I may consider hiring a copywriter for this very reason.
I’ve deleted the comments about this issue simply because I have corrected my mistake now and I would prefer to talk about the (BEAUTIFUL) quilt instead.
Thanks to everyone who reads this blog. I love you all. Elsie
wow! it is beautiful! I want one. what an amazing gift!

So adorable, that’s the best wedding present!
The ways I love this? Innumerable. And now I need a daisy quilt.
Oh – and I also want to steal Emma’s dress. That collar is perfect. Do you know where she found it?
GORGEOUS! Rachel is so multi-talented:)
Love,

Hi Ashleigh! Emma’s dress was designed by me. It’s something for the book we are working on, though, and not the dress line. One of a kind! 🙂
It’s gorgeous! Very inspirational. I sew clothes but have never thought to make a quilt, even though most quilt covers in the shops are blahhhh. Yay I’m excited now!
I love it. You are lucky ladies. Enjoy that quilt time! Great smiles.
So darling! XO
lovely quilt & great friendship photo!

it’s beautiful!! I think you are smart to be careful with it 😉
i had seen previews of this on rachel’s twitter and was very curious to see the end result! rachel, if you’re listening, the quilt is amazing and i’d love to hear more about how you put it together. the giant hexies are amazing!
Wow I love creative things like that quilt! Oh-and I’m a recent English grad that would love to be considered for the task of editing your blog, which I love and am so inspired by.
Cheers,
Ellen
That is an oh-so-pretty quilt!

I’m collecting material at the moment to make my own quilt – may take a while though…;)
I love homemade gifts – they always mean so much, because a person has taken time out of their lives to create it. Hooray for homemade!
Seriously she makes the prettiest quilts! 🙁 I wish she made them for Red Velvet tehee! I would want to own a Rachel Denbow quilt! ;)Over here in Nevada, anything like that is REALLY hard to come by. (Not to mention I dont have that kind of talent! sigh) So jealous of you! xo
No wonder you’re so protective of the quilt, it’s so pretty! I love both the colour combination and the pattern! And you guys look so amazing on the second pic! Love the atmosphere of it!
i’d love to see your bedroom once it’s finished, but i’m not sure if this is too personal for you to show here. i’m sure it’ll be beautiful and very inspirational! xx
How wonderful! I would feel the same if someone made such a magical quilt.
Thanks for your nice comment on my blog again 🙂 This quilt is amazing… I have wanted one for years now, but they always seem to be too expensive the moments I spot a pretty one. And a handmade one, just for you, that’s of course the best kind of quilt you can have! I can imagine you’re really careful with it, I’d be too.

What a pretty picture!
Your photos always make me miss the luxury of having a close girlfriend (girlfriends if I were really lucky) nearby. We have to travel now for company.
Congrats on everything that you have; it’s all very lovely!
Beautiful quilt! I have always had a thing for grey and yellow together.
What an amazing and thoughtful gift! You will have such amazing dreams in it–hopefully ones of vintage dresses.

Amazing blog you have here, i’m sure this can attract lots of readers over the net for the cool write up. After reading your blog, I might feel that sometimes, Quilts helps to spend sometime with our closed ones.Thank you so much
