Scrappy Heart quilt

Linking up my scrappy charm heart quilt with Oh Scrap. Cynthia had posted her smaller hearts a while back and a link to the bigger heart using charm squares. So I thought one big heart and a border would be a perfect size of 36" for a donation quilt for our local neonatal unit. So I dug out several scraps of pinks and and my 5" sq ruler and wow in no time at all I had this yummy stack of pinks cut. I layered several to make it quick cutting.  And once I had the pinks done I might as well do the blues too for future quilts. Since there are so many charm quilts one can make I just cut up a lot of the pastels so they will be ready for future projects.


I decided to make the heart look like it is floating in the center so I added a small white border before the outside pink one. This is so simple-try one!!  Here is Cynthia's heart block and The big heart from the FatQuarter Shop.

I am editing this to say check out the link parties I am joining this week along with Oh Scrap there is Freemotion by the River and Let's Bee Social.

    Too stinkin' cute! ;) There is nothing like just being able to sit down and sew! My very favorite part of pre-cuts. Although it has been awhile. . . too long me thinks!! LOL

    Love your quilt! Not only uses up scraps but is lovely and useful. Just in time to hang for Valentine's Day too.

    I made several of the smaller heart quilts, but never thought of making a large one for a baby quilt. Great idea! And yours is adorable. I see more hearts in my future!
