The hearts were fused and then satin stitched or machine blanket stitched. It was finished in time for the March l998 Show at Peytons in Green Bay and entered in the non-judged class because this was my first stippled piece. Wanda Curtis was judging the show and was very disappointed that it wasn't in the judged category because she felt it was very well done. This was a great boost for my self-esteem. This baby wall quilt was given at Lisa Saari's baby shower for Nora Champeau's first child.
