This was an online quilt-along blogging project with Chrissie Grace of “In His Grace”. I started it in August 2009 and FINALLY finished quilting and binding it in January 2010. It has 80 blocks with an 8x10 layout. Each has a 4" applique heart and finishes at 6 inches.
This is another Project Linus donation so the binding is sewn on by machine. I think this makes it sturdier to withstand the many machine washings. I also quilted it with an all-over loopy design, which seems much easier than meandering. The hearts are appliquéd with a raw edge so they should get fuzzier with each washing.
The backing is a pre-owned curtain that was donated by my neighbor. This was a very simple and fun quilt to make. It measures 56 x 66 inches.
