Oh, Mary, I love that Dwirling swirly. It makes the quilt very inviting. Thanks for quilting that, I am very pleased. Love your brown centered strings. Those are definitely my favorite colors.

I haven’t been to your blog in a while – you sure have been busy! What wonderful quilts you donate; I’m sure they bring comfort and joy to the recipients.

Mary, one of the things I like the best about the Heartstrings quilts is that you can use really old and out of date fabrics….just concentrate on the color palette and voila! A fabulously beautiful and artful quilt!

I love the swirly dwirling pantograph. Try saying that 3 times fast. And your brown HeartStrings is looking really nice too. Have a great quilting day!

I love, love, LOVE the quilting that you did! I’m going to have to work up some courage and try something like that myself. Thanks for the inspiration!

The finished quilt is gorgeous and your quilting makes it look so snuggley and soft. I think I prefer the brown-centred blocks, but then the autumn colours are “my” colours anyway.

These are just stunning. I’m loving the brown centers, and the dwirling– well, I think you’ve taken the technique to a new level. Just love what you’ve done with the swirls, etc. I have the donation quilts– got them a while ago to try out your freehand Baptist Fans and some Dwirling ( yep, have the DVD and it’s nearly memorized. About the best DVD I’ve got) Now, if I just had you by my side while I did these. LOL– just kidding, but I WILL get time to do these quilts. Just a few more for customers, then I’m making a little time for myself, and to do some different designs, like these. Keep up the good work and inspiration– you’re my daily read.
