Quilt Along Week Two!

Week Two! 

You can find week one here and the pattern here if you're just joining.

Week two is main hearts - last week we cut all the background.

First thing we'll need to do it cut up all those beautiful large fabrics for the main hearts. I designed the quilt to have the darker fabrics on one side of these and on the other side for the smaller hearts, but you are welcome to mix it up; especially if you're using only one colour like I am! 

I still somehow ended up with nearly all my darker prints on the right for my big blocks....

While I don't typically include specific pressing directions I did add them to this pattern. Following them doesn't add more time to your assembly but will help your blocks lay SO much flatter and have less bulk! Plus they'll line up nicer since you can nest the halves this way.

Next week is the small hearts for our chain blocks!
