Hearts On Fire Blog Hop ~ My Day!


At the heart of Peace is Love.


When Carol  @ Just Let Me Quilt announced this lovely blog hop.

I knew just what I wanted to make.


When I saw this pattern 

Totally Groovy


from

I knew I wanted to make my own version.

The fabrics are ... 


a Blooming Bunch!

@ Moda Fabrics


My version features only the pieced heart and peace sign

in the center of her quilt.

Although I love the original quilt, I wanted a smaller wall hanging size.

I am very happy with this simplified version, which measures 40" square. 

I took this photo early one morning when the sun was on my design wall.

As it is winter in my quilty corner of the world,

the days are frequently cloudy.

On this day it dawned bright and true.


I chose pink for my center heart.

Pink has always represented friendship to me. 

My heart has been in pieces much of this year so far.

Even my sewing corner has been overshadowed by events.

I have been sewing or stitching everyday,

but I have been picking up whatever has appealed to me on any given day

and this has helped me.

Peace by Piece 

One Stitch at a Time.


Today my heart is filled with light and hope

Let the Sun Shine In! 

Let the Sun Shine In by the 5th Dimension

This is actually a song from 1969, not the 70s.

If you lived through this time, you know what a great period of unrest it was.

Now we look back on it with nostalgia

and remember the good times.

May the good times be all we remember of 2020 and 2021 ... someday.

I am quilting and hope to have a finished quilt to show you soon.

I have been happily cleaning my messy sewing corner and quilting room.

That is why I am cleaning and reorganizing... ;)

and I am making plans to open it and put it together on my day,
which is in September ... just for fun!
