Happy Valentine's Day --- Getting Up Close with My Quilting


I was able to get several photos of this quilt from all angles on the front and back.










The backing is a grayish minkee fabric.






So soft and cuddly.




If I remember correctly, I believe this quilt was given to a young couple for a wedding gift. What wonderful gift!





Happy Valentine's Day!

Enjoy your day!

Week of Hearts --- Sweet Hearts, Grandma's Hearts, and Musical Hearts

I searched my blog for posts about hearts.

I found "My Little Sweetheart Box"  This link will take you to all the posts about the Sweetheart Box and the tutorial on how to make the quilted box.

"My Little Sweetheart Box" 



I found the post about Eve's Heart Quilt.  She made with her Grandma.

"Eve's Heart Quilt"


Her Grandma brought the quilt to me to quilt, while Eve watched. Name of the post was:  "Why Grandma?"




I found hearts on the quilt, I created for my brother's recording studio.  I am inspired by his music. I named it "Keep on Dreaming" after one of his songs.


I wiggle line quilted most of this quilt.  I wiggled the lines of the checker board and the heart too.


When I was done I threw it in the snow for a photo or two.... The wind caught it and it rolled on the top of the snow.

"Keep on Dreaming"


I hope you are enjoying my Week of Hearts.

Happy Heart Week!
