Valentine Inspiration

So, with Valentine's day just around the corner, I was inspired to dig out these heart blocks that I won from blocklotto.com years ago.  I had started putting the variety of settings with them a long time ago but this month I wanted it finished!
I can't wait to get it on the longarm for some free motion quilting!  The backing is going to be that grey with the daisies on it.  I have a few more hearts left so one of them will probably serve as my label, just need to get it embroidered.  The quilt is a little short for a twin bed so I guess you would call it lap size.
I think it looks mostly pink but my husband said it is orange.  I was planning on binding it in orange.  I auditioned borders but decided I liked it this way best. 

First finish of the week...

I plan on having a lot of finishes this week since I am stuck here at a half empty house, getting new tile installed.  I lined up a bunch of projects that are long overdue for binding and I have a sewing setup in my bedroom, and there is always Lizzie.  Kids and dogs are vacationing at Grandmas during the install. 
So, here is the first finish of the week.  This table runner has been waiting for just the hand stitching of the binding for at least a year. 

Got the basic idea from a pattern in a magazine-sorry, can't remember which one...Basically just a 12  1/2  inch (unfinished) square in the middle and strips sewn on in the Quilt As You Go method.  I am doing a demo on this method at my quilt group in September so I am trying to get some examples done and actually making a write up of the "pattern".  These go really fast and make great gifts-anyone thinking Christmas yet?
