    Default Sweet Sixteen quilt

    I designed this quilt a couple of years ago, made the quilt top and stuffed it in a drawer. So I finally got around to quilting this summer. I'm in love with it! It was meant to be a valentine quilt but really I think it could be used year around. I'm considering making another one in blues and yellows, and maybe one with more earthy colors for my daughter. It's measures 75 x 75 so it would be cute tossed over a chair or on the back of her couch. The pictures were taken at my neighbors house, she has such a lovely farmhouse.

    Beautiful work! Don't limit it to Valentine's Day, show it off all year round!

    I can't believe you stuffed this beautiful quilt in a drawer! I absolutely love it. Pretty colors and fabric choices and pretty quilting to top it all off.
