Some people have commented on the Heartstrings blocks. I am posting how I did mine along with the link to the site where I found it. It was found off of Bonnie Hunter's website www.quiltville.com.

Here is the link..

Here is how I did mine. I took an old telephone book and removed the pages. I cut them with a rotary cutter measuring 7.5 inches square. This will be the finished sized of the blocks. Then I use a ruller and draw lines on the center where my focus fabric will be. The lines are 1 inch. So I put the ruler from corner to corner wth 1/2 inch on each side and use a marker to draw the line. I do this to each side and this makes a one inch strip. I hope this is clear.

Here is a picture of the finished strip.
