Heart and Home quilt

I've been working in my studio on this newest quilt, Heart and Home.

Aren't the colors just the best?  I have really enjoyed working on it these past couple of weeks.

With the heart in the center, it makes you think of home, doesn't it?  Perfect to hang on the wall or snuggle under, right?

Here it is on the quilting frame.  I'm doing some real custom quilting on it.  This block is called flower box.  Doesn't it look like a flower box in your garden?

 Here is the heart block and the tree block.  You can see some of the quilting I have done on it.  Echoing around the heart, then added some meander fill on the bottom half, with rays at the top.

The tree block I added a swirl with a basket at the bottom and a star at the top.  This one isn't finished yet.  I will add some more quilting before it will be finished.

Working right now on the house block.  It has a door and 5 windows.  I am working on bricks for the main walls of the house and there will be shingles for the roof and more bricks on the chimneys.  Won't that be cute?

 Not sure how I will finish the outer borders just yet.  It's a work in progress.


For today, I had to take it off the quilting frame so Jeff can put a customer quilt on to quilt before the week is out.  A last minute job for a Christmas gift.

I will get back to this one next week sometime, I hope.

What are you working on now?  More Christmas gifts?  What is that special someone going to get under the tree this year?

Happy quilting!
