I won this patchwork quilt in a raffle at my Nan's WI meeting / craft show when I was about 14 and I absolutely loved it. There is so much work that has gone into it. It's a single bed size. I was so worried about spoiling it that I packed it away and didn't use it for years. Then when I re-discovered it at the bottom of my blanket box I thought it was such a shame so I chose to use it and risk slight damage rather than keeping it packed away. It was on one of the spare room beds but now we use it on the floor for Belle to play on. I think she likes all the bright colours and it's softer than the coir carpeting. So this is sort of my inspiration to make one of my own. Have been going through a couple of books that I have and a magazine. One book is great 'Kids quilts in a weekend' - the title sounds a tad ambitious to me, presumably not someone who has kids!! But even so they don't look too complicated and lots of great unisex designs. Alternatively have seen this one in a mag. It's square so I'd need to adjust but I love the hearts!
