Today is the last day of "Hearts On Fire" and it's so sad to see it end. It's a good day, though, for me to share my project along with some really awesome quilters.
The "Hearts on Fire" challenge was to sew something with a heart that isn't red. My "Frankie Loves You" quilt definitely met the challenge with orange and purple hearts!
Frankie Loves You
50" x 62"
Frankie offers his love...
Moda Grunge fabric was my choice for this quilt
There's an orange button on Frankie's cuff!
Cutting out all the hearts was a breeze because I used Crafter's Edge Crossover II and the Nested Hearts 4 1/2" fabric die. I ironed the HeatnBond Lite to the wrong side of fabric and ran it through my machine. Seriously, it was so easy!
Look who's hopping with me! I know they'd love to have you visit and leave a comment.

January 22 - TODAY
There's a Pinterest page just for this blog hop. Check it out HERE!
It's been a while since I've had a giveaway, so today's the day!
There are two blog hops coming up...one that was already announced and a new one.
Carla at Creatin' in the Sticks will be hosting a "Stripes" blog hop February 22-25. The challenge is to sew something with stripes. Sounds fun to me! Sign-up info at Creatin' in the Sticks HERE.
I will be hosting the "Salt and Sand" blog hop March 22- 26. The challenge is to sew something in ocean/sand colors and/or ocean creatures. This one should be fun, too...well, I think they are all fun!
Email me if you want to play along.
The Frankie hand and flower applique were so easy with Heat n Bond Lite EZ Print Sheets. I ran the sheets through my inkjet printer...no tracing! Plus, the backing peels off without having to score it with a pin. I love that!
I'm so glad you stopped by!
Okay, made me smile to see Frankie's flower and hand in the midst of the hearts. That is really cute, and would be great hanging at Halloween, maybe on the door.
