Lil Twister Heart

On Monday I decided to give these a try. The top one is 7 inches square.  It is made from the pieces left over from the one below. The squares for the little one are 2.5 inches.  The bottom one is made with 5 inch squares.

These are made from my stash.  The background fabric has been around a long time.  Guess I will have to try making one with 3.5 inch squares.
Did not finish a UFO, but did decrease the stash by a little.
Almost done hand quilting the pink fan quilt.

Have a great day. Thank you for stopping by.

Mary, I love your hearts! I've yet to make a twister 'anything'. Looks like fun and I do have the small template.

What a lovely way to use up scraps. You have had some finishes over the last week. Lots of quilting in store for you?

These are really cute, Mary! I have a twister too, but I haven't used it yet. I didn't even know you could make hearts. What a cool idea. Was it difficult to lay out?

Happy stitching,

Mary I love your heart quilts. I have a template and want to make one of those too. Thanks for the info on size. I can see I'll have to get that small template too. Love what you have done.

Hi, María! Beautiful work! I love it and love your colors! Twister technique I learned last year and fell in love and this is one of the outstanding projects that I have to do with it! Thank you very much for your visit and sweet words to my blocks. I hope you enjoy the photos from the trip, there are still many more to go! A big hug!
