This quilt was made for a young friend recently diagnosed with breast cancer. When I asked what color she would like her quilt to be, she said white. Then she suggested a single pale pink heart in the center. I honored her color choices but the heart is place slightly off center. The quilt is not a true whole cloth quilt but has that look. The center is a 30 in X 42 in piece of plain white fabric quilted as if it where made of 6 in blocks.The border is of white-on-white striped fabric with mitered corners.
The quilt is machine pieced and quilted. The heart is hand appliqued. The quilt measures 46 in X 57 in.
This next photo shows the pink heart and quilting a litter better.

To be honest, I don't have good hands for quilting or sewing for that matter but I really like handmade stuff. I'm trying to learn how to quilt, though, and I think started with the cute pink heart; maybe I'll be off to a good start.
Very pretty Ramona. I love the simplicity. And the pink with the white.
Just beautiful. You do good work.
Thank you all
