Bright and Wild Hearts

 I really have no info about this quilt.....except that I quilted it. haha

It was found when we cleaned out the house when my son died. I have no idea if he started it....I rather doubt it, since it isn't his color palette. He might have gotten it at an auction....or found it in an alley. He was forever bringing things home from everywhere.

One row was quilted....in a rather tight scribbly fashion. I believe it was done on a domestic machine because if it was done on a longarm, the top and edges of the top would have been sewed down....and they weren't.  There were a couple of safety pins still in it, so that says domestic machine to me. 

I finished it in a larger open scribbly fashion. With yellow thread...the same as it was started. It is 70" square.

Here is part that was already sewn (quilted).

This is the back.  it is more a brown...there is no sun today and my camera sucks....or perhaps the picture taker sucks. haha

There are little hearts all over the back.

Instead of a normal binding, I just folded the back over and sewed it down. hahahaha   that was a disaster.  Remind me not to do that again.

I don't know what will become of it....I don't have a plan in mind. It was my quilt of the month (#6).
