Always a Quilty Buddy

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
