I've made good progress on my Glowing Hearts project this week. Thanks to a tip from Kate at Life in Pieces, the ninth heart - which is the center one of the group - turned out perfectly!
The next step is to add the sashing and cornerstones between blocks and rows. I chose a couple white with yellow-green and pale blue strips for the sashings, and the dark blue (second strip on the center heart) for the cornerstones.
It didn't take long to sew together blocks and sashing into rows and get two-thirds of the quilt center together. Thanks to a sewing tip from Gail at The Cozy Quilter, I was able to save the heart points and all is well!
One more row to attach and then it will be time
to make a decision about the outer border!

Glad to hear the points were saved! Such pretty hearts! Gail at the cozy quilter.
Diann this is so, so pretty! I love the sashing and cornerstone choices. The Points Police will be happy to hear about the saved points - lol!
That is coming together so nicely! I am curious what her tip was.
Well done, Diann. I'm glad to hear you found a way to make tips of the hearts work.
the hearts all turned out good from what I see - I understand though about points getting too short I do that all the time.
Those hearts really do glow! Well done!!!
Looking great! Kudos on keeping up on the sal. I don't always do that. Thanks for sharing on my weekly show and tell, Wednesday Wait Loss.
