I had the morning off today, and I was in major need of a "pick me up". My brain said it wanted to surf for some bright and cheery Valentine's Day ideas. Let me be honest here . . . Pinterest and Google are both Black Holes where I can get lost for hours sometimes.
I don't know for sure where this actually came from, so I can't give credit to the quilter who made it. But I traced the pattern back to http://www.canoeridgecreations.com/ . The picture was on Google when I searched for "heart blocks". Isn't this one fun? I didn't see a link for a pattern but it's basically quarter square triangles made into hourglass units and half hourglass units. Or it could be done with lots of half square triangles too. I did pull out the project box that was filled with Valentine fabrics - and in that box were some surprises. I'll share some of that another day.
I want to do the math and figure out this pattern for myself before I cut into any of those fabrics. But I think this is something I want to make. However - I promised myself that the final 2 paper-pieced pineapple blocks MUST be done before I start anything new. I made one of them before emails from work projects interrupted me.
I agree this heart is adorable and would be a great seasonal wall hanging.
ReplyDeleteIt's a great heart wall hanging. Love the fabrics, too. I'm looking forward to seeing your version!
