This quilt was given to my niece as a wedding gift.  Yesterday was Allison and Chris&#8217; wedding.  <\/p>\n<div> <\/div>\n<div>I included the following in the gift card with the quilt:<\/div>\n<div> <\/div>\n<div><em>Every quilt tells a story\u2026..<\/p>\n<p>Every great story starts with a title.  The title of this story is represented by the name of this quilt, \u201cBricks and Stepping Stones\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>This seems like an appropriate quilt for a young couple who are starting out their lives together.  BRICKS represent the building of a home and life together.  The STEPPING STONES are made from black and white fabrics which represent the good times and the bad times that lie ahead.  Stay on the path of the STEPPING STONES and you are destined for a long happy life together\u2014one that will survive everything that life throws your way\u2014the good and the bad. <\/p>\n<p>When your quilt reaches the point where it needs some laundering care, please wash on a gentle cycle in cold water with a cold water rinse.  Use a product called \u201cOxi Clean Colour Catchers\u201d.  These useful little sheets catch stray dye in the wash and make sure that it isn\u2019t deposited anywhere it isn\u2019t welcome\u2014i.e. red on white, etc.  (The only place I have found to purchase Colour Catchers is Save on Foods.)<\/p>\n<p>May the colours of your life together be bright and the threads of your life together be strong.<br \/>Quilted by Aunt Norma, April 14, 2007<\/em><\/div>\n<div><em><\/em> <\/div>\n<div>These are some fun pictures from the wedding.  <\/div>\n<div> <\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_VOQOwkbSspA\/RiKhcvfUJ7I\/AAAAAAAAAjI\/8p9f_TCpWL8\/s400\/Allison%27s+Wedding_14April+2007+002.jpg\" border=\"0\"><br \/><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_VOQOwkbSspA\/RiKiSPfUJ8I\/AAAAAAAAAjQ\/D41Hp40lX8Y\/s400\/Allison%27s+Wedding_14April+2007+004.jpg\" border=\"0\"><br \/>These are pictures of the wedding party&#8217;s limo.
