Happy Valentine's Day. I have my Valentine Postage Stamp quilt out this month to celebrate. I blogged about it several times and most of the info is in a previous post (Here) These two pictures are from that post, but the quilt is in the same place over the railing again this year because it still does not have a hanging sleeve. It is now bound, but wasn't last year.
Here's another heart quilt with toile that I made a few years ago:
It's displayed on the back of the living room couch:
I've seen so many beautiful Valentine's Day quilts on the internet that I may have to make a few more. Right after I get these UFOs under control. This week's progress on UFOs has been good. For the Bonnie Hunter Talkin Turkey quilt, I have all the outside Hsts made, and am now sewing them into four strips for the four sides. I should finish this quilt top this week. The binding is on two sides of the civil war sampler quilt now. I hit a little snag this week when I tried to snip off a stray thread on the binding and accidentally snipped into the binding!! Ugh. First I tried to roll the binding over a little extra to fold in the snipped part, but realized that was not a good fix. So I took off about 12 inches of the binding around where the snip was, and replaced it. Sometimes I don't want to tell you about these goof ups, but they are all part of quilting. I do like to pretend I have it all together. But you know the truth. I really enjoyed seeing all of your pictures last week, and I read all of the blog posts. I'm looking forward to seeing progress when I see your posts this week. Please remember to include a link back to this blog post somewhere within your blog post. Thank you.
