Love hearts...

This is what I made with my green and blue fabric squares from my previous post; lovehearts!
I just love hearts... ehh... love lovehearts.... whatever.... and lime green is one of my favourite colours... so I think these turned out quite good.... especially since I haven't done any patchwork for a long time. They are a bit on the small side though, 7x7 cm. So that makes the seam allowance at the tip of the hearts a bit on the small side....

I found the pattern for them HERE as part of a mystery quilt project by Merete Veian. I didn't really have a project in mind when I made them, but I don't want to make the table runner they were meant to be, so that's why I didn't follow the pattern regarding size of the starting squares, and that's why mine turned out a bit smallish... But since heart shapes are my favourite I couldn't resist makining some. I'm sure I can use them for something anyway (anybody have any suggestions??).

Scrap booking

I recently discovered scrap booking and this is my first attempt...

This LO is only 6x6 (15x15 cm), but that was a good size for my first attempt. The reason I chose this format is that I have this album with 6x6 pages in page protectors. I've got two of them, and the plan was to make one LO for each of my girls every month.... ehhh... well, as I said, that was the PLAN... All I've managed to do is this one for March... so I'm kind of a little bit behind... Next I'm going to make a page for Susie. I think I'll start from last month and work my way back... well... that's a plan, anyway....
