Happy Valentines

February 14, 2018

I didn’t really plan to make Valentine cards this year; I was going to use an e-card for my family. However Deloise inspired me with a card she made and I thought I should do a few as well.

Each of these finished about 9″

 

The patterns I used are all ones that I had admired over the last few years and this was a chance to make some of them. Although I took apart the one on the right a couple of times I think I could improve on the pattern by extending the heart shapes to the border on each side.

Finished Size: 12″ square

Stars are a favourite design so I couldn’t resist this one that included a heart. I see now that I should have had all those background hearts heading in the same direction.

 

Finished Size: 11″ x 20″

 

I made a table topper for Pat’s Valentine, and not only because I wanted something to display at our upcoming House Concert on the 16th.
