Happy Valentine’s Day!

1. While watching the snow fall (Knoxville,TN) I enjoyed walking down your “memory lane” this morning Lori. I too remember those “school days” that were so special; we decorated a large box with white crepe paper, adding red hearts from construction paper. It was the most beautiful Valentine box to a child’s mind & all those little Valentine cards were more than special. This was a very special day in our school—I wonder if the children continue these crafts?

2. This is beautiful, Lori. Did you use white all over for the Forget-Me-Nots? It appears as if some are in matching red thread. I love your monochromatic art quilts. Sometimes I have trouble, though, figuring out how to add the designs into a colorful block. Any suggestions?

   1. I did use Forget me Nots as the fill. And I used a variety of threads including red and variegated threads to create more interest.

   2. In a colorful block the quilting is more subtle. Heavier threads help make quilting more visible.

6. I absolutely love when you show how you combine your designs! I’m trying to open my mind to new ways of quilting and this helps more than you could know.
