It was so nice to find out in advance that pink is our April color for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge, but before I could get to that, I had some yellow and gold blocks to finish up. I stitched the last two yellow appliqued hearts, bringing my total for the month to eight.
To continue the hearts theme, I pulled out a stack of pink 2.5" squares and pieced my Scrappy Heart block for April.
Be sure to check out all of the wonderful scrappy projects at the Rainbow Scrap Challenge every Saturday and at Oh Scrap! over at Quilting is more fun than Housework on Sunday. I'm also linking up with Slow Sunday Stitching at Kathy's Quilts to share my hand applique project.
Happy quilting everyone!

I kind of like the occasional frame in the hearts, Julie.
ReplyDeleteBoth kinds of heart blocks are going to make beautiful quilts! Love the patchwork hearts with the Tula Pink background!

ReplyDeleteYour hearts are lovely, as always! I think 2022 is Year of the Heart!!
ReplyDeleteHeart projects are always a favorite! Plus, using your scraps for the RSC is a perfect way to show off each color!

Both varieties of heart blocks are lovely. You always do such a great job of your stitching.
ReplyDeleteBoth of your heart blocks look great. Good that you can see the end in sight for the collection of appliqué hearts. Progress!

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, your quilt with rainbow-filled hearts with borders of pretty strips of fabric skipping around each heart is going to be lovely. Those scrappy heart blocks àre lovely, too.
ReplyDeleteDid you purposefully display those hearts with the colors following on a diagonal? Is that how you plan to stitch up the final quilt? I like all those pretty fabrics. The scrappy hearts are great also. You have quite a variety of fabrics.
ReplyDeletePretty quilt blocks! Hugs
ReplyDeleteI just LOVE your heart blocks, both kinds! Beautiful work, bright and cheerful.
ReplyDeleteOh what a cheerful heart quilt! Who wouldn't love to sleep under that!
