Default Valentine Candy quilt

I am looking for the directions on how to finish this quilt.. I am about to start on the hearts, is there more directions for the rest of this one. My grand daughter just fell in love with this and I would love to make it for her. Can anyone help me on this?? Thanks for any help .. Pat in Tn

It has been fun participating in some "candy" swaps to get thousands of different fabrics. The current swap is in this thread: Birthday swap 2017/2018....... Sign Up. I didn't join this year, but hope to next year if they have it.

SheriR taught us how to make little dresden blocks from "candy" squares in last year's swap. I used them in the top and bottom of this quilt to make it longer. Thank you SheriR!

Since the main blocks are heart shapes, I thought it was appropriate to name the quilt "Valentine Candy."

Are you asking how to set the Valentine Candy blocks? I just put sashing between the blocks and set them on point. Here is a tutorial on how to set blocks on point: https://www.generations-quilt-patter...triangles.html

Here is the tutorial on making the Valentine Candy block: Valentine Candy Block

HI, is there more to the directions for the Valentine Candy quilt besides the hearts and the dresdens? Is there directions on how to put them all together to make a completed quilt? My grand daughter saw this and fell in love with it. I would love to be able to make it for her.. TIA Pat in Tn.
