This heart block was a leftover from the Valentine quilt I made and posted last week. The light and dark values of the fabrics was too different to use with the darks and mediums in the Valentine quilt, so I made the block into its own quilt. I added borders and squared the on point square, continuing the light and dark fabrics from the heart.

I free hand, long arm quilted it on my Gammill machine, doing a different design in each area. I will take this one to my local quilting shop for them to hang up as an example of some quilting designs I can do for customers. They already have some of my other work there.

Thanks for looking! Janie
