Meanwhile, I've been working slowly along on a few quilts. I've been doing some handstitching on this Red and White quilt. I've decided to add more hearts in those central white patches, so I had to cut out a lot more. I'm getting the skinny vine laid down, too. There is a lot of applique to get done, so you probably won't hear about this quilt again until later in the year, when I have it all put together.And I now have backings and tops made for these two quilts, the Red and White Log Cabin, and the Turquoise Star. I'm starting to think about sandwiching them, but I'm not there yet.
With your perfectly coordinated selection of red fabrics, it's going to be a beautiful quilt. I love the idea of the hearts on a vine too. Have fun with the applique as you watch spring being sprung in your part of Canada.

ReplyDeleteSaludos !!
Lovely quilts underway! I have to keep reminding myself that spring is on the way here, too!
ReplyDeleteI like the look of your red and white heart quilt :-)
ReplyDeleteHi, Ilene. Ah, yes, there's nothing like the drama of red and white! Lovely quilts! Hope your winter is ending. We had to get the grass mowed today as it's knee-high...the advantage of living in Tunisia, early spring.
ReplyDeleteHappy quilting!
best, nadia
