LOVE



as i was browsing on sew mama sew i came across the wonderful little "love quilt" by kelly and fell in love with it right then and there. of course i had to give it a try, with my own little creative twist to it. i love it and i'm so happy knowing to whom i will be able to pass this one on. (the folks taking care of our kids while we are out and about on valentines day....)
it was quick and easy, and i do enjoy using up all the little bits. i have never before done paper piecing so this is a first and i'm sure i will do it more often, though have to get used to the process of thinking...
kelly is selling the whole alphabet in her etsy shop. just in case some of you would want to get started on letter quilting too.

meanwhile i'm thinking of other little valentines, like this or this or this. well we will see what i manage to create within the next few days...

What a wonderful quilt, thanks for sharing that! I am also especially grateful that you shared your valentine idea links, I was needing some inspiration and these are perfect. I will be home-curing some salmon for Alexa and Marvin and making homemade Nutella for them too, but Alexa needed some ideas for family. Time to get started! Hope you're enjoying your snow.....Love,A
