A Patriotic Quilt for A Gift

My sister-in-law has a birthday this month and I wanted to make her something special. Since she loves patriotic things, I thought this panel would be a nice gift. Here’s my finished quilt. 

The 11.5 inch star blocks were a nice addition to this quilt. I used the same star all the way around the panel. The corner stars were just a switch of color. 

I quilted the piece using edge to edge quilting with a patriotic design.

  

Thanks for stopping by for a look at my patriotic quilt - Judy.

Happy Heart Quilt

 I've been taking some on-line quilting classes over the past several month from Philippa Naylor at Quilters Question Time. My latest class was the "Happy Heart"  class featuring curved piecing. Here's my finished quilt.

You can see the heart is made with curved piecing. Each square is 4x4. Some squares have curved pieces with two fabrics and some with three fabrics.

The white border of the quilt is asymmetrical then appliqued hearts were added.

Another small project I have finished is a Valentine Mug rug. This one was quick and easy plus used up some of my scraps.

Thanks for stopping by to see my Happy Heart Quilt and Valentine Mug Rug -  Judy.
