It's always hard to say good-bye
to friends that have been
Quilty Buddies.
It may not have been a friendship
for many years, but we all
know about the threads that bind quilters together.
Our friend, Jenine, is opening
another chapter of her life in Austin, TX.
We've loved getting to know her over
the past couple of years.
I had been gifted a
basket full of red and white fat quarters
in February
24" x 24"
and I used this wonderful collection of fabrics
from one group of quilting friends,
to stitch this sweet and easy heart quilt for a Quilty Buddy.
It seemed the perfect way to pass
the meaning of friendship forward.
I made the the hst's to finish at 2"
and made 4" four patches set on point.
Any size patches would work. You
could customize them to your particular project.
It was fun to
machine quilt heart motifs in the
open spaces. It seemed to add another layer
of sharing, caring and friendship.
This would be a simple and sweet
pattern to use for a quick baby quilt.
A going away gift doesn't have to be
big to let someone know
that they will be missed. It
just has to be something from your heart.
Until Next Time-
Kyle
