Hearts and Flowers Quilt

Sorry photos not in order!
I just loved making this quilt for my daughter, she LOVES Pink!
It's freezer paper/glue, machine zig zag in clear nylon. I'm 'Barb' and 'Barb Rose' ....... I seem to come up with two names? Bye

  8. Wow. You did a terrific job getting your photos posted. And the quilt is just wonderful in the pink. Love the colors. I hadn't been planning to make this quilt, but seeing yours makes me want to try it...if I ever finish my Stars and Sprigs.

  9. Can someone please tell me - do I have to click on each person's posted comment to say Thanks! or answer a question? OR if they want to know more do they click on my blog?
    This Hearts And Flowers Quilt is almost like the Original -the only noticeable difference is the Pink background fabric and the Stripe Border Fabric. (The heart in the centre is the same). AND I didn't put the circles in Border number Two. I plan on having this quilt custom quilted.
    I haven't appliqued a quilt by hand (YET!). This quilt is a freezer paper/glue, machine zig zag with nylon thread - and was so much fun to do! (I was always afraid to try nylon thread because it's all curly and thin and fly away BUT when I learned that you can anchor with a few small straight stitches first at the beginning and the end - It was all good after that, plus I use masking tape to stick it down at the start). My daughter has seen her quilt but not with the border on, she has to wait now until October 2011 for her 18th Birthday!!! Bye
