FQS Oh, Fransson Friday

I almost forgot that it was time for

FQS! Oh, Fransson!! Friday!!!

What did I make this month?




Since this is a month of love, I decided what better to try my hand at than the beautiful quilt from The Practical Guide to Patchwork

Valentine!


I have loved this pattern ever since I saw it in the book. But was intimidated by the amount of cutting that it would require.

I realized that doing OFF is really helping me tackle things that normally I wouldn't... 

This quilt was one of those things!

And now that I have made a small one I really want to make a larger one, maybe for my bed (a bit too ambitious!)

So here's my Valentine...


Isn't it adorable?


Here's a detail of the simple straight line quilting...


The stunning back... A find of my recent Baroda trip...


Looks gorgeous, doesn't it?


I love it!!!


I think this one isn't going anywhere... This one is for keeps... I dont know what I'll do with it, maybe when Chaitanya (my brother) has a baby I'll give it to him... But till then, its not budging from my home!

Do you like it?
Do you want to join the FQS! Oh, Fransson!! Friday!!!

Hop in to join the fun... I'm doing it solo still, but I'd love if you would link something you've made with any of Elizabeth's patterns...
