    Karla-I "heart" your hearts! What a neat idea for a quilt. Fun pattern!

    I've decided this one needs custom quilting--so, even though it's small, I'm going to have my quilter do it. She'll light right up to have one that's not an overall design. :D The original pattern (much smaller) was quilted in red thread, but I don't think I can go there. You think white?

    I think white. Red would distract from the hearts.

    You remind me of me! I'll be working on something and then -- "Oh, look! Pretty!" and I'm off on another tangent!
    Exactly :!: :!: :!: :!:

    Great quilt Karla. I love the use of the log cabin design to make the hearts. That is right up your alley isn't it?? Can't wait to see it quilted!

    How do you know me so well? :D

    I have plans--some day--to make very scrappy hearts. The red was okay--but it doesn't fit my house at all. Sooo, I decided to make table runners of 4 hearts--two in each direction. That way I'll put it out for Christmas...because I'm Danish (half) and they remind me of the Danish hearts we hang on the tree. That's wny the pattern/colors caught my eye from the beginning. :wink:

    Terri--this one is going to the quilters. I try the ones I make into table runner though. This one needs custom quilting... then I'll sell it, unless my dad--the Dane--wants it. :D
    I shudder to think what my quilting would look like on this--way too much white... :shock: :shock: I like to hide my quilting in dark fabric with matching thread. :wink:
