I'm sorry I should have said pittsburgpam your avatar looks like it could be a beautiful quilt. Is it? If so is there a pattern.

It is a quilt I am working on, the latest is posted on this page...

http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-76240-2.htm

I have the bias strips cut for the vines but I haven't got around to cutting more fabric off the bolt and getting it washed and dried for the borders. I'm also reconsidering the design of the vines. I layed it out on the bed with the strips and I wasn't thrilled with how it looked.

The blocks are from May 2010 issue of American Quileter magazine, I added the hearts and border.

Wow it just goes to show what a little imagination can do. By adding the hearts and the border you have made a gorgeous quilt. Congratulations.

Thanks for the vote of confidence, Pat, as I'm new to actually-diving-in quilting this week! I'm so excited about this BOM but I'm not sure my skills are great enough to follow, even for one block. Someday I may jump in though. :thumbup:
