Free Pattern Friday – Spread the Love!

Some of my favorite things to play with over the years have been hearts, love, and general happiness!

With Valentine’s Day coming up, it seemed like a good time to share some old favorites. I’d love to see what you can do with these in modern fabrics. If you make any of these, please do share!

All patterns were designed by me and are free for your personal & non-profit use.

Need paper piecing help? I’ve got you!

Free Pattern Friday – Hearts Go Round

4 Replies

Welcome back to Free Pattern Friday!

February is here and I’m feeling the love!

I have had a long romance with heart-themed quilt blocks. Today’s free pattern is no exception!

Hearts Go Round is a 10″ (10 1/2″ with seam allowance) block to paper piece. Made from 4 – 5″ hearts, this sweet floral design is easy to piece and easy to put together.

I’ve added some fun photos for inspiration, too!

Print or Save from Google Drive

Repeat the 10″ block for a fun secondary pattern!

Hearts Go Round Clover for my bff, Jewells!

How wonderful does Hearts Go Round look in reproduction 1930s fabrics?!

We also have a special bonus free pattern from Designer Anita McDowell (aka QueenOfCreative)! When she shared this block with me, I couldn’t help but notice how great minds think alike, so I asked if I could share her design today along with Woven Heart. Enjoy!
