The quilt measures 70 inches square. I used 2-1/2 inch strips, and the blocks are trimmed to 12-1/2 inches. This was made from a fat quarter bundle of Promenade by Riley Blake and Kona Cottons in Petunia, Snow, and Daffodil.
The texture of the quilt turned out lovely. I quilted hearts in rows spaced 2 inches apart.
It was intense quilting, and I spent 3 days free motion quilting on the longarm machine. I loved every minute of it too!
The backing is pieced from various Heather Bailey and Amy Butler fabrics. The tan fabric is from Andover Fabrics. I had just enough 2.5" strips to make the binding. I love the scrappy binding. It works so well with this quilt.
I love the backing and scrappy binding, too! It is a very bright and cheery quilt, and the hearts are fun! Good luck in the festival!
