Wedding Dress Quilt for Whitney's Mother

Whitney wanted a quilt for her Mother, who was married in 1951.  Mother's gown included ivory lace, long sleeve bodice and a satin, chapel length train. She wanted to include the lace and button elements and was interested in an asymmetrical design.

The quilt has a offset circular starburst design, with the center covered in lace, and buttons around the lace.  The lace border from her dress was incorporated into another circular pattern, and a feather border went around the outside.
