Happy Valentines Week! My small Valentine quilt and her larger counterpart are out this week in celebration. You probably remember this quilt when it was on my design wall:
Here's the little one, 14" by 15", which is hanging in the dining room:
My large postage stamp Valentine quilt just came back from the long arm quilter, and is now waiting for final binding and a hanging sleeve. Here it is on the railing by the front door, and as a bonus; Penny Lane is in the picture too.
The top half of it is seen down the stairs, but is upside down. I need to get the hanging sleeve on it, so I can hang it on a wall, all right side up.
Measurements are 81" width by 77" height. Since each square is an inch, it must mean there are 6,237 pieces in the quilt, although I didn't count them.
Here is the cross-stitch pattern from the Internet that I used:
And lastly, and sweetly, here are our initials in the center of the center heart. Awwwww......ain't love grand?
What's on your design wall this week? I have been away from home most of last week, and didn't get a chance to look at every one's walls, but I plan to this week. Show us what fun is happening on your design wall. Only request I have is that you refer back to this particular blog post somewhere within your post. Thanks!
