_______________________________________________


The design and quilting is very versatile so you might consider the following
finishing options:

1.  Forget the applique and prepare a mini whole-cloth.
Quilted on Moda Muslin with Aurifil 40Wt thread - Dream Wool batting
In the sample above I used my QP Edge Template by my dear friend Linda Hrcka ~ The Quilted Pineapple and added a double-line cross hatch in the center.
Sew FUN!!!

2. Make it larger by duplicating the design for a 4 patch!!

The hearts look fabulous oriented in either direction.

3.  Consider adding sashing to the middle of a 4 patch... so pretty!

 4. Or surround the blocks with setting triangles...

Just a few of the things you can do to turn the mini into a real quilt.

  11. This was great fun to read! My favorite part is your voice. It felt like you were chatting right with me as we leaned over the work together. :-) I also loved the info on the marking tools and eraser pen. And it's always helpful to spend time with someone who encourages one to let the glitches go. I shall make sure I've liked all three places on fb--but there's a good chance I've done that already. :-)

Not only that when you right out a tutorial it's written as you speak and it's so clear and precise that even I can follow. I'm hooked big time on your tutorials and look forward to many more as I'm learning so much more than I have in a long time. Keep up the great work ☺
