Valentine's Quilt - UFO update

Work continues on the Valentine's Quilt.

I'm stitching feathers for the first time.  The heart blocks are completed.  Here's a close-up, not the best block but that will keep me humble :)

This project is stretching and sharpening my skills and making me think but that's not a bad thing.

Happy Stitching!
