    These heart quilt blocks were so much fun to make! When I caught a glimpse of these quilt blocks from Cluck Cluck Sew I knew that I needed to make some, but I didn't want to commit to another quilt right now so I made pillows for the girls. Sweetheart pillows for my little sweethearts.

    Each block came together in about 5 minutes. So quick and easy!

    I created 8 (7") blocks, enough to make two pillows.

    I added a small piece of batting and backing fabric and quilted straight ⅝" lines.

    Who else adores this Miss Kate fabric? I've had some fat quarters for quite a while that I've wanted to use. This was the perfect project! Now that my pillow fronts were finished I added the pillow backing fabric then stuffed with fiberfill

    I just love how they turned out! So bright and pretty.

    The girls loved them too! They look so sweet on their beds and they have insisted on sleeping on them every night even though I made them more as a decorative pillow. I'm just happy that they love them so much.

      These pillows are so pretty, they really warm up a room and totally bring us into a new season. Thank you for the link to the tutorial, I was very inspired by your pillows (and LOVE the sweet fabric choices) and after visiting cluck cluck sew I am going to try to make the quilt!! I have never fancied the thought of making a quilt because I see perfect rows, perfect seams and hours of labour. Her tutorial is simple enough that even I might have a chance at completing it. wish me luck...
