Pink hearts

January’s colour is pink for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge and Quilty Love is having a heart themed quilt along, so I’m thinking about Valentine’s Day while participating and sewing up pink hearts. 

There is also a bonus with the pattern to make another little quilt from the trimmed corners. 

I really enjoyed playing with my pink scraps and stash this month.  I wanted to make some heart potholders, and here is my first. This pattern is from Spoon Full of Sugar. 

It ended up too thick which causes my machine to skip stitches, so I’m going to try a thinner batting.

Ready to sew few pink leaf potholders. 

All these pink projects, and yet I don’t feel I’m finished with pink, I still have this stuffed bag to play with. 

May I have the courage today

To live the life that I would love,

To postpone my dream no longer

But do at last what I came here for

And waste my heart on fear no more.
