Happy Valentine's Day. I worked on my most Valentine's-like quilt this month to get it finally finished. This quilt pattern was from Yahoo Groups Spring Mystery, 2012. I even had the quilt top done before that because I was a pattern tester. The hold-up on this quilt was that I was really new to longarming and I was having a lot of fun with a new template. Well, the top looked great, but I never looked at the bottom. There were tons of eyelashes. This took 16 hours to rip out and I did it over time through different road trips and vacations. Well, I decided on quilting this with swirls instead of Hearts of Flutter (which I tore out.) The results were awesome:
Quilted with Circle Lord Swirls, of course.
The same polka dot fabric for the back was used for the binding. I don't think you can go wrong with polka dots!
I met my February goal a little earlier than normal. I'm happy to link up with Fiber of All Sorts.
