Testing a Quilt Pattern
I had the wonderful opportunity to test a quilt pattern for Jenel
Looney called Two Hearts in Love. Her pattern was inspired by the
romance author Susan Mallery. She is Susan's assistant and she created
this pattern as a gift for Susan. She has submitted her pattern to a quilting magazine but said I could share a picture with you before the
magazine came out with it. I will admit, she designed the heart portion of the
quilt, but finished her pattern with a solid border...well, I like
pieced borders and wanted the finished quilt to be larger (I will still
be adding more borders to get it queen-sized), so I came up with the
woven ribbons border. Currently it is 57"x73". I LOVE this pattern and
it has become my go-to pattern for wedding quilts!!!

Your quilt is wonderful. I bet it was fun testing the pattern.
i just saw your post on stash busters regarding your next solid border, and had asked about the pattern there. then, i came back here and nosed around. i must say, that your border(s) makes the quilt in my book and i would love to recreated it. the center is lovely and your fabrics too. i use deborah cohen's trinity knot work pattern for my go to wedding quilt, but may have to change over to this one, MUCH easier to do LOL
