The Heart of Roses Quilt
From the Backcover Heart of Roses Quilt An elegant collection of appliqued roses comes together to form a heart-shaped border around an exquisitely quilted heart in the center of this delicate new quilt design. The roses are at their most dainty-just before they burst open into full bloom. And the quilting is at its loveliest, drawing the eye to the central heart motif. Clusters of roses in the center of quilted hearts anchor the two lower corners of the quilt. Another cluster lies inside a quilted heart in the center of the pillow throw. The Heart of Roses Quilt provides all templates for appliqueing and quilting, along with assembly instructions, fabric requirements, and complete guidelines for completing the project. Both the novice as well as the accomplished quilter will find this pattern a joy to make. One Dozen Roses Wall Quilt One day, the staff of The Old Country Store (where I sell many of my quilts) was asked by a customer for a wall-sized version of the Heart of Roses quilt. I discovered that by adapting the original pattern and focusing upon the central motif, I had a design of exactly One Dozen Roses! Here are the full-sized patterns with clear instructions for making the One Dozen Roses Wall Quilt. - C. Jean Horst C. Jean Horst has been an avid quiltmaker for eight years.
