This is the reason I was practicing all those feathered hearts the other day.....
After all that practice, I was able to quilt the heart first time - YAY!!
Didn't take long as the cushion only measures 81/2" square.
If you want to see how I make up my cushions, check out my tutorials.
I added some little pearl beads to echo the heart shape and two pieces of fine ribbon to tie the rings on with...........
I gave it to my friend last night and she was delighted........ now I just have to think what i can make for a wedding present within 3 weeks!!
Just thought I'd add these photos. They were taken at night time under my spotlight but they show up the quilting well.
Onto a new project now - I'll tell you about that in the next post.
I'm linking up with Connie's blog for Linky Party Tuesday today.
See you all next time.
Rhianon.
