Candy Heart Wall Hanging

The "Love is in the Air Wall Hanging" design fro Missouri Star Block Magazine Winter, Volume 2, Issue 1, was a great pattern for my candy heart wall hanging. I used some of the layer cake fabrics from Michael Miller's Modern Basics and various coordinated yardage. The pattern features applique techniques. In the same magazine, there is also a section called "How to Applique" on pages 88-89 which offers helpful tips. I used the Quilt in a Day template for making vines to complete my border. It is a fun project and a great present for that special someone.
