I have been determined to spend a little more time on the finish of Patchwork Hearts this year, and this was the week to do that. These blocks were made in 2024.
Last year, I got them sewn into rows and started quilting them, one row at a time. I'm up to the third row, and right in the middle of the quilt where the multi-colored heart is.
Lots of favorite scraps here!
The last two rows needed to be layered with batting and backing, so I spent some time doing that this week, and now they're ready to be quilted, too! Early on, I decided to finish this as a quilt-as-you-go project, and still have to make the final decision about how to connect the rows. At some point last year, I decided a narrow neutral border between each row is going to work the best. I still have to find that neutral fabric.
I may be slow as molasses on this one, but it's still progress!
