AccuQuilt Valentine’s Day Project Roundup

As we roll into February, the thoughts of quilters everywhere begin to naturally turn to love…or at least to hearts! For those of you who have already succumbed to such matters, AccuQuilt has the perfect patterns to set the scene!

Whether it’s a table runner, a wall hanging, or a warm and cozy quilt, your loved ones will treasure all these beautiful, inspirational patterns.

Let’s take a look!

 

 

The Love Tracks Table Runner

While food and love may not be the same thing, they do often go hand in hand.

It might simply be champagne and chocolate-covered strawberries. Or, perhaps, an intimate candle-lit dinner. What better way to complement the food of love than with this romantically seasonal Love Tracks Table Runner?

This pattern makes a great weekend project. The GO! Goose Tracks-9" Finished and GO! Setting Triangles-9" Finished dies make it both fun and easy to create.

 

 

The EPP Heart Pillow

Once you’ve eaten, you’ll no doubt want to settle in on the couch and binge-watch something romantic. Like… Gilligan’s Island, maybe? Hey, to each their own.

Whatever you’re watching, you’ll want to be cozy, and this EPP Heart Pillow is just the thing for the job.

So, get out your GO! Qube English Paper Piecing 1” Finished Sides and get ready for some classic English Paper Piecing.

 

 

The GO! Heart Weave Throw Quilt

If the temperatures are still a bit brisk when the big day comes, you’ll need a little something to keep you warm. How about the GO! Heart Weave Throw Quilt?

It’s romance - with a modern vibe. Plus, since it’s a great scrap-buster, you can enjoy the evening secure in the knowledge that your scrap pile is down to a manageable level.

Make it with:

• GO! Strip Cutter 2 1/2" (2" Finished) 3 Strips Die
• GO! Strip Cutter-4 1/2" (4" Finished) Die
• GO! Square-2 1/2" (2" Finished) Die

 

 

The Decor of Love

Now, while you’re watching the TV right in front of you, it’s important to remember that there are still three more walls surrounding you. You don’t want a stray glance away from the screen to distract anyone from the mood.

Well, we’ve got you (and your walls) covered.

The Log Cabin Love Wall Hanging

To your left, go with the Log Cabin Love Wall Hanging.

It’s constructed using the GO! Log Cabin-12" Finished Square by Leslie Main Die and the GO! Strip Cutter 2 1/2" (2" Finished) 3 Strips Die.

Its log cabin roots remind you that love thrived even before Netflix was a thing.

 

 

The GO! Sweetheart Wall Hanging

To your right, you’ll want the GO! Sweetheart Wall Hanging.

Its flower garden theme will remind you that your love continues to grow over time. Its whimsical style serves as a refreshing way of saying, “Hey! Love can be fun, too!”

You’ll need these dies to make it:

• GO! Rick Rack Die

The GO! Hearts of Love Wall Hanging

Finally, as we all know, not everyone immediately takes the hint.

If your special someone doesn’t pick up the visual cues supplied by all the projects you’ve seen here, then put this GO! Hearts of Love Wall Hanging on the back wall.

Right next to the kitchen.

Its unambiguous message will leave no doubt as to what the evening is all about every time they hit pause to go for more champagne and strawberries.

All you need is love (and):

• GO! Classic 2" Alphabet Uppercase Set Die

Sew in Love With Quilting

Of course, not everyone is into the whole Valentine thing. Maybe you’d rather not deal with the pressure of piling a year’s worth of romance into one, arbitrary night.

If that’s the case, never fear. All these patterns are perfect ways to show your love for any treasured friend or family member.

…or just to symbolize your love of quilting.
