Good morning,

In my guild, each person is required to make at least 2 heart blocks. If a member gets sick, we rally and put some of the blocks into a quilt for them to hopefully speed up their recovery. Here are some I made.

that is such a great idea..i think i will make some heart blocks too..that way if someone needs cheering up i can quickly whip up a quilt for them.

I love your hearts. May I borrow a couple of ideas from your middle group of hearts. I started a heart BOM last year that has to be finished. I think the kite would be a great block and the hot air heart balloons. Thanks for sharing.

Your guild has a great idea..love your blocks!

bj9patch 01-07-2009 06:12 AM

Please feel free to use the blocks.
I do not have a patterns per se.

But this is what I did:

Start playing your favorite music.
Cut strips of fabric you like
Sewed them together to make a new fabric.
Cut out hearts of different sizes, then play. :lol:

I swear, it works.


Thanks for the kind words.

I not only like the blocks, but especially love the idea of sending someone a quilt of hearts to cheer them up. What a great idea.

I particularly like the heart shape for some reason. I really like all the different blocks featuring hearts. Nice work.
