    A while back, SueN posted a really cute Christmas wreath quilt made on pre-quilted fabric. I wanted to come up with something for my small bee to make, contacted her for directions and here are some of the results. The first ones are all made using same fabrics, but all are different; the other is a wreath we made for a sick member; the flowers will last longer than a plant! Thanks so much for sharing the original, Sue. (For the heart shape, I just folded a newspaper page and cut out a heart.)

    Thanks for kind comments. Sorry the pix are so big and look blurry, but they were really fun to make. The hardest part was cutting out all the motifs. Now I want to make one for Easter. I call my valentine one, the first, "My cheating heart" since I felt I was cheating with the prequilted backing.
