My shoulders were sore! There are a few wonky spots in the middle when smooshing the big quilt through my machine got a little tricky. I quilted this one myself, and it had been awhile since I'd done free motion quilting on a large quilt like this.

Wouldn't this be a cute memory quilt made with a pieces of clothing or special fabrics? Or a signature quilt where people can sign their names in the larger squares. The blocks sew up fast using Diagonal Seam Tape (here's a video of me using it to make a heart block). I chose the colors in this quilt out of that tiny 30's floral print, mostly using near solids because it's all I had on hand. This block would even make a cute quilt on it's own! If you don't already own one of those patterns, or you prefer full instructions just for this quilt, I wrote out a full pattern for Heartsy you can find here or at the link below.

Heartsy Heart Free Block Pattern (click here) If you already own Brightly or Pumpkin Patches, I wrote out free instructions to make the heart block that you can substitute for the stars and pumpkins in those patterns. It's hands down the cutest quilt I've made in 2022.
