Project Flitting

Hearts_1
One definite down side to having months of quilting lethargy is that now there are so many projects I want to work on, it's hard to maintain focus on just one. So I put the Mistletoe Manor aside for a day or two while I whipped up this Valentine's Day tablerunner using a couple of Moda charm packs. I made the runner 'one heart' longer than the pattern and will add another border of squares to use up my extras. For a couple of hours work, this was a very quick and satisfying project!

  1. Quick, satisfying and very cute! I'm so glad that you've got that Mojo working for you again. You're starting to sound like yourself again.

  3. I just bought that pattern and the Sandy Gervais Hearts Aflutter fabric bundle. You have inspired me to whip up that runner before Valentine's Day! It is just adorable.

  4. I have a very personal connection to this pattern. =) I was at a retreat last summer at Moda. Sandy Gervais was there and had made that pattern. It was supposed to go to the printers the very next day but she didn't have a name for the pattern yet. She asked a group of us and I blurted out "charming hearts" since it was so fitting. Everyone agreed that should be the name of the pattern. Gosh, I'm just tickled pink to name one of her patterns....just little ol' me. =)
