Valentine Snowballs

Here's a sweet treat for Valentine's Day. These adorable red and pink heart prints and coordinating fabrics were all in my stash of goodies collected over the years.


Four snowballs in each color make up 12” blocks. For quilting, I used a walking foot and a ruler to straight stitch with white thread in rows of three.


Valentine Snowballs is 48” square, perfect for snuggling with your honey. I sewed this one with Laney, our Maui Blue and white painted Singer 301.



Accuquilt dies used:
55330 Snowball 6” finished BOB
55017 Strip 2½”



I hope your day 
is FULL 
of LOVE
