Thank you all so much for your kind words. I'm sorry I haven't gotten back here till now.. been a fun filled week.. NOT!!

I'd be more than happy to share with you the template I made so ya'll can make this too. It's also what I traced around to do the quilting.

Someone had asked how I got the heart shape. I also do digitizing and I made a heart in Embird, then printed and traced it out. It wasn't quite right for my first try, but then I did some modifications on it and it worked..

What a beautiful quilt!! The colors are so bright and cheery!!! Great job--think I might want to do that or at least put it in my book of things to do!!
