It's Valentine's Day, the perfect opportunity to share a pretty little heart-themed quilt in the making.
This is one of my sister Betty's creations, begun about six months ago for one of her two nieces and steadily worked from concept to quilt.
Each hand-pieced block is 4.5" in size and separated from it's neighbours by a narrow white sashing, which, like the pinks, are very scrappy. The hearts in each row are staggered against the adjoining rows. LUV.
She's made about 400 blocks in total but will likely use only 330.
The extra blocks were going to be worked into a border pattern I believe, but she's reimagining that idea so we'll wait and see what the final design becomes. So sweet.
Happy Valentine's Day!....M
