Quilt of Many Hearts

The ‘Quilt of Many Hearts’ is a homey touch of Americana. Quilting is often a community effort, with an end product being more than the sum of the inputs.

Perhaps you joined in the very social pastime of quilting, or have an aunt who has, or know a quilter. Tying together fabrics from some favorite patterns to make a wonderfully useful article continues a long-standing tradition of letting nothing go to waste.

The fabrics on this Quilt of Many Hearts are connected in a very orderly way. Different colorings of the hearts and swatches of fabrics are in a checkerboard design. And, the checkerboard is held together with a clean line of red and white stitching. You’ll think of the many happy hours the quilters put together to make this community piece.
