Comfort Quilt......Frayed Edge Hearts 1


We have gathered together to create a

comfort quilt for someone dear to us...

Day 1


We are using this Sweet Treasures pattern:

My Love






The hearts have been cut in 3 sizes...






The hearts are then layered...






The hearts have been stitched 

onto the background...













Triangles are stitched to all the corners...






We are using 16 heart blocks 

for this lap quilt...






By the end of the day...

We have 44 heart blocks in progress.

This will be enough to create 2 lap size quilts

and 1 baby size quilt.




More to Come...
