Instructions

I searched the web for the Japanese symbol for love because my friend's daughter was getting married and decorating with an asian theme. I was inspired by the upholstery fabric to make the sign as her gift. I found the sign, Copied it on the copier, then cut out each section and blew it up much larger than the original to create what you see in the picture.

Think outside the box for your projects, you might be inspired to create something you normally would not attempt!

you can do it! I think anyone can if they set their mind to it. If there is a local quilt store, ask them about quilt groups in the area, or classes, etc...lots of online tutorials, too. I found hands-on in a quilt group was best for me.

I wish you had taken a picture! That would have been great! I even bought a book on Sashiko method of quilting to try to make it more authentic! I hope I did it justice.

Yes, it is very nice. I do have a pic but it is from the book since I gave the wh to my daughter before I was able to photo it. I will post it so you can see what it looked like, k? Good job!
