Scrappy Hearts Quilt Pattern

Today I’m sharing a couple of older heart quilts made using the Scrappy Hearts Quilt Pattern. These Scrappy Hearts quilts are both made using Figo fat quarters.

Scrappy Hearts is the second heart quilt pattern in the Quilty Love heart pattern line up. Each year I create a new scrappy heart pattern just in time for Valentine’s Day.

The goal is to keep these heart quilt patterns scrap and stash friendly. This Scrappy Hearts quilt pattern is very scrappy friendly.

Scrappy Hearts includes a baby size, throw size and twin size. These Figo Scrappy Hearts quilts are the throw size.

The Scrappy Hearts quilt pattern is available in the Quilty Love pattern shop. View all of the heart quilt patterns here.

Scrappy heart quilt pattern

This Scrappy Heart quilt is named Scrappy Hearts because that’s what it is! This heart quilt is sewn together using squares and half square triangles. It’s easy to find these squares from your scrap stash.

The Scrappy Hearts quilt patterns is also fat quarter friendly.

Three quilt sizes

Scrappy Hearts includes instructions for three different quilt sizes:

  • Baby Size
  • Throw Size
  • Twin Size

Solid background or scrappy background

The Scrappy Hearts quilt pattern has options! You can sew up this heart quilt using a solid background fabric or use an assortment of squares from your scrap bins. The pattern includes cutting instructions for both options.

Figo Fabrics Scrappy Heart quilts

I made both of these heart quilts using fat quarters from Figo Fabrics. These lines came out a few years ago so they would be harder to find now but I thought they worked well for these scrappy hearts since each bundle was somewhat monochromatic.

Scrap buster quilt pattern

Scrappy Hearts was also designed with scraps in mind. During the quilt along a few years back I made a version using all low volumes and reds from my scrap bins. You can see the stack of those cut fabrics below. This was such a satisfying quilt to sew up using entirely scraps. I haven’t quilted that quilt top yet so it hasn’t made it up on the blog yet.

One of these days I’ll finish up this fun scrappy version of the Scrappy Hearts quilt below.

Long Arm quilting

This pink and purple Scrappy Hearts quilt was quilted by Knot and Thread. I love this design she chose. This quilt has some negative space on it so it really highlights the quilting nicely.

Backing

The backing on this Figo fabrics Scrappy Heart quilt is a Shot cotton by Peppered Cotton. It’s almost like a linen fabric so it’s nice and soft for quilt backings.

Black and White Striped binding

The binding on this scrappy heart quilt is my favorite black and white striped binding. I use this fabric for these striped bindings.

Machine Quilting

I quilted the blue and yellow Scrappy Hearts quilt myself using my sewing machine. I actually used my smaller Janome for this one!

Scrappy Infinite Hearts Quilt

Today I’m sharing a scrappy Infinite Hearts quilt. I have so many quilts that need to be posted so I’m focusing on the heart quilts with Valentine’s Day just around the corner.

I made this fun scrappy Blue Infinite Hearts quilt during the quilt along last year. It is made entirely from my scrap bins. I love sewing up these super scrappy quilts and using only the scrap bins.

The hearts are blue scraps and the background is all low volume scraps.

Infinite Hearts is available in the Quilty Love pattern shop. You can view all of the Quilty Love heart patterns here.

Infinite Hearts Quilt Pattern

Infinite Hearts is the third heart quilt in the Quilty Love heart quilt pattern series. This is a fun and scrappy friendly heart quilt pattern. These heart quilt patterns started a few years back with the intention of making a cute heart quilt just in time for Valentine’s Day that was also very stash friendly.

The Infinite Hearts quilt pattern has a few different options. Make a super scrappy version like this one using your scrap stash. Make a scrappy version using fat quarters and a solid background. Or make a four color version using just four different fabrics.

The pattern includes all three options.

The Infinite Hearts quilt pattern includes lots of quilt sizes:

  • Baby Size
  • Small Throw
  • Medium Throw (Shown in this blog post)
  • Large Throw
  • Twin size bed quilt

Besides being scrappy friendly, Infinite Hearts can also use the following pre-cuts:

  • Fat eighths
  • Fat quarters
  • 1/4 yards
  • 2.5″ x WOF strips or jelly roll strips

Jelly Roll friendly heart quilt pattern

Infinite Hearts is jelly roll friendly! You can use 2.5 inch strips for this cute heart quilt. A jelly roll quilt is usually super versatile and means you can use an assortment of pre-cuts in place of the strips.

Scrap buster heart quilt pattern

I really try to design these heart quilts around the scrap stash or fabric stash since they release in January. I find it so satisfying to make a quilt completely from scraps like this one. My favorite thing to do do is to dig through the scrap bins, press those fabrics and cut from them. I find it so relaxing.

For this scrappy Infinite Hearts quilt, I used an assortment of blues and aquas. Those are the two colors I usually have the most scraps of.

Infinite Hearts Self Paced quilt along

Each year we have a quilt along for the new heart quilt pattern. This year we are doing Patchwork Hearts. So Infinite Hearts was the quilt along last year. You can still sign up to receive all of the information that went out during this quilt along here:

By signing up you can also download this cute tracking sheet and keep track of how many heart blocks you have made as you sew this quilt together. That sheet is fun to use even if you aren’t necessarily participating in the quilt along 🙂

You can also download a coloring page to plan out your quilt when you sign up for the self paced quilt along.

Scrappy Heart Blocks

Before I sewed this scrappy Infinite Hearts quilt up I tested a few blocks using my scrap stash. You can see the fun rainbow hearts that I made above.

This quilt would be super cute all scrappy but with a rainbow of scrappy hearts. I’m actually making a similar quilt using this years Patchwork Hearts quilt. It will be made using low volume scraps as the background like this one and then each heart will be a rainbow of color.

For this scrappy heart quilt I choose low volume prints that are all brighter white colors. In other scrappy quilts I’ve mixed in ivory and grey but for this one I stuck with only white background low volume fabrics. I like how cohesive it comes out that way.

Long Arm Quilting

This scrappy Infinite Hearts quilt was long arm quilted by Vintage Stitch. She actually finished the binding for me too! Jenae offers binding services along with her long arm quilting and let me tell you… it’s like magic getting that quilt back completely finished!

Binding and Backing fabric

The binding on this scrappy blue heart quilt is a navy blue gingham by Bonnie and Camille.

The backing is a Blossoms wide back in light grey. Blossoms is by the Tattooed quilter for Riley Blake.

Ambitious beginner/ Intermediate quilt pattern

The only thing that makes this heart block tricky is getting that perfect 1/4 inch on the bottom of the heart point. If you sign up for the self paced QAL there are videos included that might help. You can access all of the quilt along video instruction here.

Baby Patchwork Hearts Quilt – Low volume scrappy heart quilt

Today I have a cute little baby Patchwork Hearts quilt to share. It doesn’t get any cuter than a baby sized heart quilt. This baby heart quilt pattern is a fun and scrappy quilt to sew up. Sew through your stash using this quilt pattern.

The Patchwork Hearts quilt pattern is the newest heart quilt pattern in the Quilty Love pattern line up. This year the heart quilt is scrappy friendly like always.

This cute little baby heart quilt uses leftover fabrics from a Sincerely Yours fat quarter bundle by Moda Fabrics.

Patchwork Hearts is in the Quilty Love pattern shop.

Sincerely Yours Fabric by Moda Fabrics

This cute little baby sized Patchwork Hearts quilt is sewn up using the Sincerely Yours fabric line by Sherri and Chelsi for Moda Fabrics.

I was excited to use this cute Valentine’s inspired fabric bundle for this years heart quilt. Because this fat quarter bundle includes quite a few fabrics I was able to make a throw size and this baby size heart quilt with it. I did use an additional one yard of a lighter print for the throw size hearts.

I used leftover fabrics from the throw size for the hearts on this baby size quilt.

Scrappy baby heart quilt

I love how cute and scrappy this baby heart quilt turned out. The low volume fabrics from the Sincerely Yours fabric line were used as the scrappy patchwork background while the brighter reds and purples were used as the hearts.

I call this one an inside out heart quilt since it’s the opposite of the throw size Patchwork Hearts. I just started a throw size version of Patchwork Hearts using all low volumes from my scrap bins as the background. I love how this baby size scrappy heart quilt turned out so I’m excited to make one like it in a throw size.

Patchwork Hearts quilt pattern

Patchwork Hearts is the fourth annual heart quilt pattern. This tradition started four years ago as an excuse to use up the fabrics in my scrap bins. These heart quilts are always stash and scrap friendly.

They always release in January just in time for Valentine’s day.

In addition to being scrap friendly they are also precut friendly. The Patchwork Hearts quilt pattern can use the following precuts:

  • Charm Squares (5″ squares)
  • Layer Cake squares (10″ squares)
  • Fat Eighth friendly
  • Quarter Yard friendly
  • Fat Quarter friendly
  • Scrappy friendly

The Patchwork Hearts quilt pattern includes instructions for three different sizes:

  • Baby size
  • Throw size
  • Twin size

I snuck in a few photos of the throw size Patchwork Hearts quilt here. You can see the full blog post of the throw size quilt here.

Long Arm Quilting

Usually I will quilt baby sized quilts myself but I sent this one off to Modern Textiles along with the throw size Patchwork Hearts quilt. We chose this cute bow pantograph by Modern Textiles. I think it’s called Twist Tie.

Minky Backing

I’m continuing my obsession with Minky backings by using it on this cute scrappy baby heart quilt. If ever there is a quilt to use a minky backing on, it’s a baby quilt. Minky is so soft and so cuddly. I also treat it like any other quilting cotton backing and use batting.

I recommend sticking with a quality minky like Shannon Cuddle. Not all minky quality is the same and will wear differently over time. Cheaper minky fabrics might melt in the dryer so stick with a quality minky fabric.

I always use the wide Shannon Cuddle minky fabrics so no piecing required!

This minky backing is a Shannon Cuddle in the color Woodrose.

Binding Fabric

The binding on this cute patchwork hearts quilt is from the Sincerely Yours fabric line. This print is called Petunia Waffle. The binding on the throw size quilt is Petunia Criss Cross. And the heart fabric on the throw size quilt is the Ivory Dots.

Modern Textiles quilted up both of these quilts. I just love both quilting designs.

Minky is a little thicker than a quilting cotton so you’ll want to use at least 2.5 inch strips for the binding fabric. I don’t have any issues when I use 2.5 inch but you might even consider upsizing a little more if you find 2.5 inch strips to be tight with a regular quilting cotton.

Scrappy Patchwork Hearts Quilt

Today I’m sharing this sweet and scrappy Patchwork Hearts quilt. This was the very first test quilt I sewed up with this year’s heart quilt pattern.

Patchwork Hearts is the fourth annual Quilty Love Scrappy heart quilt pattern and it’s scrappy and it’s happy. This version uses an assortment of Ruby Star Society Basics fabrics.

Patchwork Hearts is stash friendly, scrap friendly or even fat quarter friendly. I used some fat quarters from my fabric stash for this pretty pink, purple and peach heart quilt.

Patchwork Hearts is in the Quilty Love pattern shop. Join the quilt along that goes along with this heart pattern here.

Scrappy Patchwork Hearts Quilt

This scrappy Patchwork Hearts quilt uses an assortment of Ruby Star Society Basics. I’ve had this stack in my fabric stash for a while thinking it would be used for one of the heart quilts. It worked out really well for Patchwork Hearts.

The throw size Patchwork Hearts quilt uses 13 fat quarters so I think I doubled up on a couple of the colors below.

Ruby Star Society Basics

Ruby Star Society Basics are such a great option to build your fabric stash with. They are basics so the patterns are subtle and work really well all mixed together. Some of these prints are being discontinued like the grid and the brushed but they are being replaced with other fun designs. If you are looking to add to your fabric stash, these basics are a great place to start.

The heart fabric in this scrappy Patchwork Hearts quilt is Ruby Star Society Speckled in White Gold.

Originally I had a brighter magenta color mixed into the fabric bundle. I think they are the strawberry color in the Ruby Star Society basics. But they ended up standing out too much so I removed them from the quilt.

This quilt left my sewing room so cheerful and happy. These colors and these fabrics really make me happy so this was a really fun quilt to sew up.

Quilty Love Heart Quilt Pattern

Each year I come up with a new heart quilt pattern. It started four years ago when the baby was just born. I felt this urgency to sew again after she was born and to use my overflowing scrap bins. So each year these heart quilts are scrappy friendly.

I didn’t actually end up using my scrap stash this year because my reds and pinks are getting depleted after making so many heart quilts over the years! I was able to use fat quarters already in my stash though 🙂

So the goal for these heart quilts every year is to make them stash friendly and then to host a quilt along so we can all sew along together.

Patchwork Hearts Quilt Pattern

This heart quilt pattern is named Patchwork Hearts because it is patchwork! The background of this quilt looks like patchwork. It’s a simple patchwork quilt and the end result is a fun and scrappy heart quilt.

Patchwork Hearts is precut friendly! You can use any of the following fabric cuts for this scrappy heart quilt:

  • Your scrap stash
  • Charm squares (5″ squares)
  • Layer Cake squares (10″ squares)
  • Fat Eighths
  • Quarter Yards
  • Fat Quarters

The Patchwork Hearts quilt pattern includes instructions for three quilt sizes:

  • Baby size
  • Throw size (shown here)
  • Twin Size

Long Arm Quilting

Modern Textiles long arm quilted this scrappy Patchwork Hearts quilt for me. We picked out this adorable heart baptist fan pantograph that goes perfectly with this quilt. This is one of those quilts that just makes me smile when I look at it.

Minky backing

The best part about this scrappy Patchwork Hearts quilt is the minky backing! It’s super soft and super warm. I used a Shannon Cuddle minky backing in the color Woodrose.

I was able to snap some photos of the toddler with the annual heart quilt. It’s kind of become a tradition to include her in these heart quilts. It’s crazy to see how much she has grown since the first one. She loves these heart quilts each year. It’s so cute.

Here’s a closer look at the minky backing and the quilting design. I finally got myself some quilt labels recently. I bought them from Dutch Label Shop.
