Bigger than a Breadbox ... HMMM ... I had lots of ideas rising up in my brain, but many of them were only half-baked. I didn't have enough fusible left for some of my ideas, so I kept on thinking.
Monday evening was our local Quilt Guild meeting. This month we were aiming to sew quilts for our charities ... OOH! Charity is bigger than a breadbox - wrapping someone in a quilt made with love?
I picked up a bundle of fabrics and started sewing them together. I didn't get the top finished that evening, but Tuesday I got it sewn together. I pulled other fabrics out of my stash to make the back. There were three blocks left over from the front, so I designed a fun back for the quilt. Wednesday it was put on the frame and I quilted it.
The back has become a wonderful, modern quilt in it's own right. I like how the four patch almost becomes a heart when set on point.
This quilt will feed a child's soul while they are in need.

I quilted it with swirls because of the circles in the main print and the swirls in the coral fabric found in the four patches.
I bound it on Thursday. Thankfully I had a fabric that worked for the binding!

Cute! I especially like the hearts in the back!
Lovely quilt.....and they do look like hearts!
I cracked up over all the puns in the opening paragraph!! Your quilt and heart are both bigger than a breadbox...and the quilt is certain to bring comfort and joy to others.
Love your colors! And such a pretty backing. I’m sure this we’ll be adored by smelling ne who appreciates its warmth!
Excellent interpretation of the 10.3 PQ Challenge theme!
this is fabulous! I love BOTH sides!!!!
