The Heart of Hearts Quilt Pattern
Join us as we celebrate Valentine’s Day by stitching up a colorful and modern heart block quilt!
Valentine’s Day is just a couple of weeks away, and I thought it would be fun to celebrate the day with a “heart-inspired” sewing project! I know many of you like to work a few months ahead when it comes to holiday sewing, but I tend to enjoy sewing for a holiday in the days and weeks leading up to it.
This year, I decided that every December to make a Christmas quilt, and every October, I’m going to make a Halloween quilt. I don’t think it matters that the project won’t be done in time to enjoy it for a holiday; I can hopefully enjoy it next year.
I enjoy sewing with Christmas fabrics during Christmas if that makes sense.
This year, I thought it would be fun to sneak in a quilt along during the first two weeks of February to celebrate Valentine’s Day.
About the Heart of Hearts Valentine’s Day Quilt
The Heart of Hearts quilt pattern is a pre-cut-friendly heart quilt pattern perfect for Valentine’s Day or any other day.
It is constructed using yardage and one 5″ pre-cut pack of fabric (sometimes called a Charm pack).
The Heart of Heart quilt is a great one to make if you’re short on time for several reasons.
- It is made with a 5″ pre-cut stack of fabric, saving you time cutting.
- It features all the same quilt block, so the learning curve is quicker. Once you learn how to make one block, you can make them all.
- At 53″ x 53″, it’s just the right size for an oversized baby quilt or a lap quilt. The smaller size makes it a bit faster to make. If you want yours longer, you could always add a 10″ border to the top and bottom when you’re done.
Quilt Along Details
Note: The quilt along is officially over, but you can still find all of the videos on our YouTube channel.
The quilt along begins February 1st and ends February 10th.
The pattern featured is my Heart of Hearts Quilt. You do need the pattern to participate in the quilt along.
There will be three videos shared as part of the quilt along; these videos will help you plan your quilt and cutting steps and give you a lot of tips and tricks for piecing the heart quilt blocks.
Since I already have a finished quilt, I’ll be creating 16 heart blocks and turning them into a quilted holiday pillow; I’ll share my process as a part of the quilt along.
Quilt Supplies
In addition to basic quilting supplies, you’ll need:
3 yards of background fabric (mine is white Sparkler)
One 5″ pre-cut Charm pack (mine is Mint for You).
You can find both fabrics on Etsy & Fat Quarter Shop
