Hearts Content Quilt Contest

February 10, 2015 by persimondreams 4 Comments

IMG_7347I just love Edyta Sitar and when I saw that her and the Fat Quarter shop were having a challenge – I was in!  Here’s what I came up with for the ‘Hearts Content’ Challenge.  I use Edyta’s mini charm pack for the letters L O V E and then I used a fabric from Michael Miller for the background.  I love mixing unexpected fabric combinations and I am really happy with how the classic-ness of Edyta’s line mixed with the funkiness of the pink, white and gold dahlia’s. IMG_7360 I used two different colors of aurifil thread for the quilting and went a bit crazy!  I had fun doing a hearts and swirl –esque design from Leah Day’s quilting book. It just seemed perfect for my little Valentine table topper. IMG_7349 Part of the challenge was to come up with a fun applique for our quilt.  I did a few.  First – I did three ‘XO’’s down the middle of the ‘O’.  Each of these pairs represents my three little ladies.  I also love this because every time they put XO on something or someone writes it to them they giggle because “It means hugs and KISSES momma!” IMG_7354 In the upper right corner I have a fun little split heart appliqued.  One side is me and and the other is Jared – so sweet right!? IMG_7348 I am in ‘love’ with my new little LOVE table topper!
