Same here. The striped fabric really is great.

I designed the Valentine wallhanging myself, so there's no pattern for it. I did the layout in Excel - first with solid blocks, then with images of the fabric from the fatquartershop. I used the Candy Kisses Petite fat quarter bundle, plus another yard for backing. The squares were 3" cut and 2.5" finished, and the heart in the center is machine appliqued.

Hope that made sense. :)

Wow, both projects are wonderful. Can't suggest quilting ideas as I'm new to that part of my quilting passion but IF I were going to do it, I might just do a stitch in the ditch ...I'm sure someone on the board will have great suggestions for you. Thanks for sharing.
