Valentine's Day Projects
I had so much fun finishing three small Valentine projects this year. The first is this ombre table runner made from the scraps of one of my favorite quilts, Quilty Kisses. It is currently adding some Valentine charm in my bedroom.
I quilted the table runner with hearts and spirals, which is one of my new favorite designs.
When we are eating at the table, this runner moves to the trunk/coffee table in my family room.
I had so much fun making that table runner that I decided to make a table topper for our new end table.
It has a cute Riley Blake print I bought last year and a Northcott print for a border. I used the envelope finishing method instead of adding a binding for speed.
Once that was finished, I put together one more table runner with five inch squares. I love how it turned out!
It was so busy with all the prints that I just quilted it simply with a medium stipple. I love how it looks with the valentine decorations on my mantle.
My great room now looks so festive and is really cheerful.
I don't know how many times I have said this, but sometime I would love to make some quilted pillows. Do you think they will look okay on leather sofas?
Check out my February Decor post from last year to see some of my previous Valentine projects.
Happy Valentine's Day!

ReplyDeleteThat heart quilting is beautiful! I think pillows would look great. I love the idea of pillows, but it reality I find they're always being thrown on the floor in our house.
