Quilt Finished! Hearts Aligned.

Not brilliant photos - but at 72" square, it's quite a heavy quilt for DH to hold up!

It's a variation on the Hearts Crossed pattern by Dandelion Quilt Studio - a pattern that I used earlier in the year.

This time, the ninc blocks all have the hearts with the points closest to the centre, as a variation on the original.

Some of the hearts pop more than others!

And this is the back - with three more heart blocks.  I almost like this more than the front, with the restful areas of green!

I went for a simple stipple / meander all over, nothing fancy at all.

This was partly because it's about the largest quilt that I want to quilt on my domestic machine, and partly because I was concerned that the additional piecing on the back would make the quilt catch when I was moving it around.  In fact that didn't really happen, which was great!

 Binding in a lovely green print, and then the label was printed and added.  The quilt has now been gifted, which is why I can show it here without worrying that I'm giving the surprise away!
