I have been quilting since 1999 and have decided to keep an online journal of my quilts. In this way, I can document their history and preserve their memory for my family and future generations. Most of my quilts are made as gifts; and with few exceptions, I have taken pictures of my quilts with their recipient. I have also made many charity quilts for Project Linus, Wrapped in Hope and Quilts for Kids.

Please join me for my quilt parade!

My Quilts #266: Simple Hearts Wall Hanging 2021


Simple Hearts is a free pattern by Cluck Cluck Sew that I started back in February after seeing Sharon Holland's quilt (below).


I fell in love with her fabric choices and wanted to make something similar using fabrics from my stash.  I did not use traditional red and am really happy with the fabrics I used.



I quilted it with an overall hearts and loops design and used a polyester batting.  


The backing is from my stash and has a pretty floral print.  It's a small quilt measuring 33" x 35", a nice size for a small wall hanging or table topper.

My Quilts #265: Chains of Love 2021

 

Chains of Love is a free pattern by Jedi Craft Girl that I started back in February.



I used red and pink fabrics from my stash and quilted it with an overall hearts and loops design.  This is a quick and easy design that I've used on all my heart quilts.


The back is a pretty pink floral design with a light lilac background, and I used an Heirloom cotton batting.  The quilt is the size of a wall hanging, measuring 48" square, and has a hanging sleeve.
