Hearts and 9 patch Quilt and Cushion.


Hi
I finsihed this little set the other day.  I had already made the heart blocks ( I'm on a mission to use things up this year, scraps, orphan blocks, you name it) and made some 9 patches to go with it.


 The quilt measures 39" x 41" and i used one layer of Soft & Bright wadding.

A small stipple makes the hearts pop.  I used Bondaweb for the applique and no other padding (trapunto)



The back.......

I had one heart block left over so thought a little cushion would be cute.  It measures 18" excluding the ruffle.




This set is for sale for £90 plus P&P.  Get in touch if you are interested.

Much excitement for me this week as my new quilting machine arrived on Monday. It is the Q'nique 14+ made by the Grace company.
We have spent the week getting accquainted.  More about that in my next post.
See you then
Rhianon.

* UPDATE : This quilt has SOLD.

  1. These are wonderful: what a great idea for using up orphan blocks, and then enhancing them with such precise quilting.

  2. Rhianon, this is the sweetest set! I can't believe one layer of that batting pops up so well. Very, very nice, and I'm sure you'll have no trouble selling the set if you haven't already.
