I have all the pieces for the heart blocks laid out on my design wall. Now I just have to get them sewn together and this one will be ready to quilt, which I think I'm going to hire Lena C. to do.
I have accepted a challenge to take part in Donna's Twisted Turning Twenty Party, and I'm waiting for the book that she has mailed to me to get started. I'm going to use some of the Robyn Pandolph "Flirt" collection of fat quarters (below) that I purchased a few months back and have never used.
Below is a little basket I made last week from instructions on the Pink Penguin blog. It's a very quick and easy project and makes a cute little basket as you can see. I'm not sure what I'll do with it

The heart is my favorite shape. I love that quilt you are making! It's amazing.
I also love that you have a 'design wall.' Cool!

That's such a lovely quilt Susan, colours are great. Love the new fabrics you are going to use for the party.
As for the basket it's gorgeous and I am sure you will come up with the perfect use for it.
