Tomorrow my very dear friend T’s daughter is getting married. I have known this young woman for most of her life. T and I met when her daughter was only 18 months old. I’ve been privileged to be a part of her and her younger sister ‘s lives as a sort of honorary aunt. So at the wedding I am very likely to be a bit tearful.

This wedding has been, like many weddings, in the planning for awhile. And with weddings on the brain, I was pleased that my bridal thread designs for Red Heart are all available on their website now.

There is my “Bride’s Garter” pattern. This garter is embellished with a layered and beaded flower, similar to the flower on my “Flowered Wedding Favor Box“.  And the lace pattern of the garter is a double sided version of the lace edging on my “Something Blue Hanky”.

If there is a wedding in your circle coming up soon, these are some lovely designs to crochet for the bride. And remember you don’t have to stick to the traditional colors. Aunt Lydia’s Size #10 Classic Crochet Thread comes in over 50 different colors.

Time to polish my dancing shoes in preparation of a happy evening of celebrating. And make sure that I have lots of tissues on hand for the tearful moments.
