Tuesday Archives #49: Valentines Hearts & Love!

Val's Quilting Studio
Welcome to the linky party that rejuvenates your old quilting/sewing posts! Click here to read more about this linky party.  And, Hey! If you are new, we are glad you are joining us. We have a very talented group of regulars around here and continue to enjoy rejuvinating our older posts to share with one another.

Today's theme is Valentines: Hearts & Love!

   I couldn't resist highlighting this scrappy heart made by Cynthia, 
who blogs at Quilting is More Fun Than Housework when I saw it and 
the adorable scrappy tablerunner at her Monday Linky:
Quilting is more fun than Housework
 She made it from her red and gray scraps. She used 2.5 squares and sewed 3" squares to make the 5 pairs of HST's. Her blocks measure 12.5" unfinished. You can find her tutorial for this scrappy Heart Block right here. I've been following Cynthia ever since I started  blogging and always appreciate that her tutorials are so easy to follow and she always gives a variety of examples of finishes to create...like this tutorial shows the block, a tablerunner, a lap quilt and a baby quilt! Always an inspirational blog to visit!

Happy Valentines week to everyone!! This week feel free to share anything that has Hearts and/or is about Love (I mean maybe you have a really good "love" story in those archives?? A story where you put your heart into the quilt? A quilty hug you gave that just made your heart smile?) I think ya get where I'm going here. Have fun! And thanks for sharing with us this week. V

  1. Mine is not a finished quilt, just a collection of heart blocks. However, it is part of my archives and I couldn't resist the chance to finally join in! Hope it's okay.
