Created more hearts to spread peace and love in my community by leaving for others to find. Sometimes leaving them at medcenters where someone facing difficult/frightening situations might need a little love in this world where hate is normalized. #quiltedhearts, #quiltsky, #sewing, #quilting

As an old lady quilter on the eve of the no kings protest, I’m honoring the hippies who came before me, I’m doing the peace love thing by leaving hearts like these around town for others to find and keep. Love and peaceful protests conquers hate. #quiltedhearts , #peace, #quilting

I finally finished ripping out stitches, replacing them, then binding it. It’s on queen size bed for size comparison. So many mistakes in this but finally completed. Entire thing is pieced together with 2” wide triangles in 4 fabrics. Took months to do. #quilting , #quilts , #quiltsky , #sewing .
