Lover's Knot quilt ?
My grandson and his wife are here for a baby shower and I have made "baby stuff" for them for their shower. They have been married maybe 2 years. They had a little wedding that was in another town and I was unable to
attend. I think I probably just gave them money for their wedding as it was kind of a spur of the moment wedding. Anyway, he asked me when was he going to get a "marriage quilt" and how long did he have to be married to get one (jokingly). I was very honored that he wants one and by golly he will get one, just don't know when. Oh: I almost forgot my question. I bought E. Burns book (Lover's Knot) a long time ago and thought that would be the perfect quilt to make. Is it an easy quilt to make? I would say I am an adv. int. quilter (maybe). I have made him a quilt, but he said he wanted a "marriage quilt". Gotta love that grandson. I love all my g/children. He is in the Air Force stationed in Okla. I would love to see any quilts by this pattern. Thanks. |
The " Lover's Knot " by E. Burns is a wonderful choice... Most of her patterns are easy enough for any confident beginner to make - including that one.

E. Burns has a video on the Lover's knot

Lover's Know by E. Burns is very easy and should go together quickly. Nice choice.

My first quilt was a Lover's Knot made in a quilting class that was for beginners and if I remember right it was very easy. It must have been or I probably wouldn't have gotten it done!

Lovers knot is very easy, very similar to a log cabin I haven't found it hard at all. It's easy enough for a beginner

That was one of the first quilts I ever made. I am making these placemats with some 1.5" strips using EB book Lover's Knot Placemats. I made a simple mistake by sewing the light where I should have sewn the med dark. Guess I didn't reread the instructions very well. Trying to decide what fabric to use for setting triangles.

i do love that pattern! to me it is timeless..fits any decor both modern and traditional. its a real classic and you don't see it all that often lately. maybe its enjoying a resurgence and for good reason! google images for lover's knot quilt and you will see lots of inspiration for it.
