Framed Hearts - Cool Free Quilt Pattern by Lucy A. Fazely
Framed Hearts combines printed heart centers with alternating light and dark frames. The blocks begin with rectangles from a six-inch fabric roll; sewn corner squares shape the two halves before framing strips complete each block. Sixty light-frame and sixty dark-frame blocks form twelve rows of ten, creating an 80 by 96-inch quilt. The advanced-beginner construction uses the Cool collection alongside Peacock and Glacier shot cottons, with the frame colors alternating throughout the layout.
