The Heart Quilt is finished.

The Heart Quilt is finished.   It’s final size turned out to be 30″ x 30″.  It took 2 weeks to finish and that’s working on it mainly in the evening.  I think I had one Saturday that I worked on it all day.

I can see why so many quilters like to have a white or off- white background fabric on their quilts. It shows off the quilting stitches.

This photo isn’t as interesting as the ones above, but it does show the entire quilt.

For my next quilt, here is what I was thinking.  I really like the yellow applique on the Heart Quilt.  I am designing a pink applique quilt, on a white background, that uses the same design element as the yellow applique.  I also wanted to incorporate the look of cut paper art, aka Scherenschnitte.

   Here is what I have so far.

    This is one of the most beautiful quilts I have ever seen. I love the simpleness and how it has just one area that really stands out and shines, rather than something that has your eyes moving all over. Not that I don’t like those, but this is something I rarely see, and it is absolutely gorgeous!
