Moving Right Along

 Hi There!

I truly enjoy my own little quilt lists, on the right hand side of my blog.

This bed-size quilt pattern came from one of Bonnie Hunter's books.

On one of her recent quilt classes, she(?) and her students were playing with the block layouts and they made this blue heart.  Well, I fell in love with it but decided to make it in red, with a touch of black.

I finally came up with a name for this one....

"Square Heart".

Gilbert and I have been practicing making quilt labels, with our printer.

We think we finally figured it out.

 

And here's a close-up, of Gilbert's label.

And here's the final product.

It measures 20" X 26" and will be on our table for the month of February.

Gilbert did some custom quilting on this cutie.

Finished Flimsy!

Hi There!

Okay, you may notice the difference in my (modified) Bonnie K. Hunter pattern.

I switched the 2 top parts of my heart - they were upside down.



I sewed the blocks together and added a black border.

Now Gilbert needs to work his magic.

Have a great weekend -
I'm off Friday and Monday!!!

2 Evenings of Quilting = 1 Table Topper

Hi There!

I work in an office.

When I get home and
IF I'm lucky,
I get to sit in front of my
sewing machine.

Yesterday, I started pulling out my reds, ironing, cutting -
I was on a mission!

I wanted to re-create a Heart Table Topper,
with one of Bonnie Hunter's patterns.

This evening, at approx. 6 p.m.,
I had all my blocks pieced and
on my design wall!!!

I just need to sew the blocks together.
No biggie.



She had blogged, recently, on how she and other quilters had played with some blocks and came up with THIS gorgeous Heart quiltlette!

The PERFECT little table topper
for our kitchen!

And me that didn't care much for red....
before.

*grin*

BTW, did you notice my new heading?!??

My friend Marianna told me that she now has 42 tris (including 3 kites) to make, for her Dear Jane quilt. Remember - she's the one that asked that we "nag" her?!?!?

Well, this incredible circular design HAS 42 triangles!!!

Imagine that, eh?

Sooooooo,
I changed (temporarily) the title of my blog,
as well!

Hope this helps her to make more triangles...

We could almost call this her
"Wall of Shame"?!??

UPDATE:
Nope... as Pat commented,
it's her Wall of Encouragement,
Marianna!!!

Seriously, I know she's been working hard at finishing her triangles....

Care to visit her blog
and encourage her?

Marianna's blog.
(it's bilingual)

Have a great week!
