Happy Heart Day!!!

Much love!
found on Pinterest
Happy Heart Day to you all!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As you read earlier this week, 
I've been bitten by the 'pillow' bug.

I happened to have six 1/2 yard pieces
of Parson Gray Seven Wonders
by David Butler...
with nowhere to go.
So, I started putting some
pillow cover tops together.

Here's what I have so far...
 


  


I like some of them better than others.  My faves are the last three...the half square triangles, the split rail fence, and the simple patchwork.  The pillow covers range in size, so I'll have several pillows of the same fabrics in different sizes (16, 18 and 20 inches).  I'll quilt them and make the backing with a solid fabric.  I will probably make a few more and decide which ones I like best to finish.  

What are you all working on?

psssssst....

My birthday is coming up
and what better way to celebrate
than to have a small giveaway?
If I can decide what to give away,
that is. 

Stay tuned.

edited to add:  I did it!  I put together a fun little package...kinda red/heart-themed...what with my birthday's proximity to Valentine's Day! 

 "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.". Jeremiah 29:11
