I Heart You - Happy Valentines Day

This quilt was quick to sew, despite over 300 HST's to piece together,
it has been quilted by the clever Mrs WB, a very quick turnaround indeed.
It is home and in use - just in time for Valentine's Day.
Not that we do much to celebrate this day -- our Wedding Anniversary falls a week prior to Valentines' Day.  Always easy to find a treat / box of choccies to give as a gift for the anniversary- -  shops are usually well stocked  with a variety of enticing treats.
 
 

  
gorgeous detail with the quilting

 



The backing fabric is "Memoir in White"    Madrona Road by Violet Craft
Interesting fun reading of the little stories / sentences
 
 
 
Ombre Binding
 

 



This quilt is my first finish for 2013, as has it also been Vanessa's.
