This is the card I created for our monthly demo meeting/swap.
The quilted square measures 3 1/4 x 3 1/4. I started with this square larger at 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 (Whisper White), centered the Tempting Turquoise 1 1/4 inch square first.
The strips of Love Me DP are cut 5/16 inch wide. Cover the entire 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 Whisper White square with adhesive before mounting the DP strips. Start mounting the DP strips from the inside, one print at a time. This is much easier than it looks! Once the strips are mounted, cut the completed quilt square to 3 1/4 x 3 1/4.
The heart (from Sweet on You stamp set in the Winter Mini) is stamped in Chocolate Chip on Loves Me DP (pink with white polka-dots), then cut out and mounted with foam tape.
The outer Tempting Turquoise square measures 3 3/4 x 3 3/4. I used the Mat Pack and Paper Piercing Tool to poke the decorative holes border surrounding the quilt.
Words are from Small Sayings stamp set in the Winter Mini.

OMG! What a beautiful quilt card. I am a quilter as well, just love everything about this. This would be good to put in a frame for my sewing/stamp room. Love the colors.
