Embroidered Hearts Quilt blocks


Carol and her husband made this needle art quilt. (He does the needlework to help with arthritis.) I am sure it is a Jack Dempsey Needle Art pattern, but I can't seem to find it anywhere on the web, so I can't tell you what it is called.




These embroidered blocks are so fun to quilt. I pretty much just outlined the design and added a heart/loop design to fill the spaces between.


Curls in the sashing and around the block edges.


The hardest part was figuring out the thread path with the least amount of stops and starts. But a few are inevitable to get the best look--inside the flower hearts.

Thanks Carol!
