1. Heart in a Snowball Block
Janet Wickell
You'll love this bright red heart that's centered on a white-on-white Snowball with deep purple tips. Practice your applique skills by sewing a batch of these 6" square quilt blocks (finished size).
2. Here's My Heart Quilt
Janet Wickell
Here's My Heart is a 64" x 84" quilt that's a combination of patchwork and appliqué. Snowball quilt blocks are adorned with Sunbonnet Sue and Overalls Sam -- two traditional characters that quilters seem to either love or hate. The appliqué blocks are separated by "chain-type" patchwork that help create diagonal flow across the surface of the quilt.
3. Scrappy Patchwork Hearts Block & Quilt
Heart Blocks by Kate N.
Each side of this pretty heart quilt block is pieced separately, and then two mirror image sides are joined vertically to complete the block. The pattern (from the February, 2008 Beginner Block Lotto) includes instructions for individual blocks and for a small wallhanging.
4. Floral Applique Wallhanging
Janet Wickell
You can construct this 24" square quilt quickly using (one version of) the fusible web technique. The quilt pattern might come in handy the next time you need to make a quick quilt for yourself or someone else, and it can also be used as a colorful throw pillow cover. If you're not into fusible web, use your favorite technique to appliqué patches to the background.
