Week of Hearts --- A Donation Quilt from 2011


Hearts, hearts and more hearts...




This Heart Quilt was made from Paper pieced Heart Quilt Blocks from all over the world.  It was a donation quilt.




If you want to read more and see more photos --- Click here for the original post from 2011. There is a link on the original post to a tutorial on how to make the paper pieced heart block.






Large meandering with hearts was a perfect selection for the quilting on this donation quilt.












Happy Hearts Week!

Week of Hearts --- Hearts in the Snow

Some people make snow angels..... I make hearts.



I used an old spray bottle, some water, and red food coloring. 
How much? 
Water: about a cup
Red food coloring: a little squirt bottle - the whole bottle. I don't need it for cooking and I am sure it was really old food coloring. Probably from years ago.



I figured it was safe for the snow and the grass, if we can eat it. There is at least a foot of snow between the heart and the snow.



Up close... It was snowing as I was spraying.







I am just a kid at heart!

Enjoy!
