Remember the little heart shapes I showed you I was prepping
here? They were for this Hearts and Gizzards block. This is my first time ever making this block. I am doing this BOM from one of my local quilt shops. The instructions are for fusible but I did mine in hand applique.
I also made some progress on some sewing kits I have been wanting to make for a while.
I also got the mitered borders on my
Soupcon block. Maybe I can get the diamonds put in place tomorrow so that I can start the applique part.
And I got one and half sides of the quilt bound.
I had a new blogger come by my blog for a visit. Her name is Rebecca of
Quilting Everyday. She live s in Alaska. If you have a second go by and say Welcome. You might want to go by to see the awesome mountains in her header and her gorgeous string quilt posted on April 9.
With Passion,
Carrie P.

I love your hearts and gizzards block but what a name!! lol!
Indeed you HAVE been making progress :) Love your block - but I'd have to call it something else LOL!!!

You have been busy producing all this beautiful stitching
You have been getting a lot finished. Such a pretty block the Hearts and Gizzard. Thanks for the link Rebecca's quilts are lovely.
Applique, zippers, mitering, and machine quilting. Egads! I need to broaden my horizons. I love the hearts and gizzards. I just went and visited the Alaska mountains of your new blog friend.
I too love that H & G block!
One of my favorite vintage block patterns!
Love the colors I see for your soupcon block! Congrats on making progress on that quilt binding too.
I wondered what those heart shapes were going to be! I love that block!
I have never made a Hearts and Gizzards block. Looks like it would not be the easiest to make. Yours looks very good. How big of a quilt are you anticipating making?
I love that block, especially in that fabric. Your mitered borders look so neat, I should have asked you for help.
Hearts and Gizzards? Yours is very pretty, does not fit the name! Your Soupcon quilt is going to be beautiful and can't wait to see the finished sewing kits. Thank you Carrie for mentioning my blog on your post!
What a fantastic quilt, Carrie! Very pretty fabrics! I saw Eleanor Burns at quilt market last spring during Sample Spree - she was promoting the book and all dressed up in a darling apron - and looking great for her age!
Cheers!
Love that block Carrie , I like that you hand appliquéd it ! Lovely work as always :-)
