My Quilt Top Is Finished


I finished my quilt top and it's ready to get machine quilted.  I really enjoyed going through my stash looking for my favorite reds and pinks.  I had a layer cake of valentine fabrics which started this whole quilt, but I ended up using a lot of scraps for my hearts. 


I worked this piece of fabric in below because it had a heart in the design.


I had to include more of Jay McCarroll's fabrics.  Just because I like Jay and his fun drawings.  These fabrics are from his Woodland Wonderland collection. I have only fat quarters from that line so I used only a little bit of them.  I have to save them for a future projects.


He calls these the "Love Birds."


I found this photo of Jay McCarroll from his website. Can't wait to see what Jay will be up to in 2012.  I highly recommend his documentary "Eleven Minutes."  It's great to see what a designer goes through to show their collection on a runway in eleven minutes.

Fantastic color choices and I love the print you used for the letters, as well as the "reversed" letter "u." Just lovely!
