Trying to find a place to share some thoughts, ideas, and creations. Quilting, gardening, homemaking.
So it’s not a quilt but it is a finished top. It will be quilted up tomorrow and packed away for next year.

Ugh! I sewed four rows out of order. Time for Jack the Ripper and a missed personal deadline.

Assembly is under way. Let’s see if I can bet the clock and be finished by Valentine’s Day. My husband informed me that Feb 15th the house gets flipped to St Patrick’s.

All the A and B blocks are now complete. I feels that’s good enough for a stopping point today.

All the A blocks done. Now onto the B blocks.

Stopping point for now so I can go to dinner with the husband. Half completed centers for the A blocks. Using the partial seam method, which I’m fond of.

All components completed and ready for assembly into fifteen A blocks and fifteen B blocks.

After a few life hurdles and distractions I’m back at finishing this Valentine’s quilt. Always take into account nesting your seam while pressing.

I finished my “Tumbling Hearts” quilt and help my Aunt make a baby sized quilt in three days.

Coming out very nicely if I do say so myself. First time using crop on the quilt top.

Next quilt is designed, fabrics picked, and math done. Too bad the background fabric, a solid pink, hasn’t arrived yet so I can’t get it all cutout today.

All sewn up. Now need to make some longarming decisions. Am I going to quilt around the hearts in white and the hearts in red. That would be lots of ProStitcher work.

All laid out and ready to become a top. Also here’s the inspiration sheet.

Seedling all looking good except looks like something ate a couple leaves. Need to start another tray of marigolds too.

Time to square the hearts up and then add the sashing.

It’s getting there. Not as quickly as it could cause I’ve recently bought an expansion to one of the videos I play and it’s been consuming my time.
