Moda Blockheads 3 LOVE block in Thatched and Abby Rose
Are you ready to celebrate Valentines Day and LOVE? Well, Brigitte Heitland's LOVE block is a perfect fun way to spread some cheery feeling.

​Here is the Thatched and Abby Rose version. Abby Rose will be shipping to shops at the beginning of March! Those roses are perfect for a love theme.

I am fortunate to have my mother visiting this week. Talk about LOVE. She has been my biggest cheerleader and is a wonderful example of love. Not only that, but she made this weeks blocks for me!! Yes, when Mom visits, she gets right into the mix of fabric fun and sews along. She is also sewing along in Blockheads this time to make a quilt.

Foundation paper piecing is a newer thing for me. I've done a few blocks with it and I know the tip to shorten the stitch length is very important. I know because I've forgotten to do that in the past and it is a lot harder to rip the paper out and not tear seams. With a shorter stitch length its SO much easier! I also like that I can mark the colors of the fabrics on the back paper so I can follow my plan as adding the pieces.

Just a thought...these L O V E pieces would look good added side by side into a rectangle as well as in the stacked square.

Good Morning Robin,
What a thrill it was to see your Mom on your blog. I am a friend of your mom's since her days of quilting in Rochester Hills, Mi.
We used to go to the Ann Arbor Quilt Guild many years ago before my son was born. I have not seen her in years but we write each other at Christmas time. I know she is so proud of you all.
Have a blessed day,
Cyndi Anderson
