Valentine’s Day Sewing

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner – can you believe it?!? I don’t know about you, but 2019 has already been a busy year for the Kennedy Clan!

Faye and I traveled to Dallas where I spoke at the Dallas Modern Quilt Guild and taught a full day workshop! We met a lot of very fun and talented women!

We had some wonderful guides who graciously took us on a tour of Dallas. We explored the Dallas Museum of Art, ate our weight in authentic BBQ, and we even took a call in the Oval Office…

We returned home to Minnesota just in time for a snow storm and then the polar vortex – brrr!

Let’s just say it’s been the weather I needed to force myself to hunker down on some projects – projects I’m excited to share with you soon!

It’s also been the perfect weather for me to start on my Valentines! I thought I’d try to get them out before St. Patrick’s Day this year…

Here are a few of my favorite motifs for you to try for your Valentine! Whether you’re making a vase quilt, a pillow case, cards or just practicing, here are some LOVE-ly motifs to get you going!

The Doodle Heart

Sweetheart Border

Heart Leaf Border

Nora’s Rose

If you’re interested in sending letters to your loves, here are some examples of ways I’ve turned my practices doodles into fun stationery!

Do YOU still send Valentines to your sweethearts? Have YOU been working on any projects?? How’s the weather where YOU live? We’d LOVE to hear! Signed, Cooped-up Cupid Kennedy If you post any projects where you used my motifs, I’d love to see!!
