After the birth of my daughter I decided we need at least one pink and girlie quilt in our house. Up to now everything was very boy-orientated, so it was time for a change. And what is more girly than hearts and flowers.

I started by cutting lots of hearts in 3 different sizes from different pink fabrics and lots of squares from different green fabrics.

I then pinned them together from large to small...

trying not to put the same fabrics next to each other.
By putting the heart-filled squares together in fours I created flowers. I then pieced them all together with plain squares in between to seperate the flowers from each other.
Add a bright pink border and some hand quilting and voila! One very girly pink quilt. (that the boys had to hold up so I could take some photos - Thanks boys!)
