Finished Friday: Pixelated Heart

IT'S FINISHED!! and before Mother's Day, might I add. I'm so happy! I really enjoyed working on this little quilt. Well, I guess it's a wall hanging and not a quilt. Whatever! I'm considering making another one, but  a throw size. Here are the specifics:

Wall Hanging Size: 22 1/4 inch square
Patch Size - Finished: 1 1/2 inch square
Patch Size - Cut: 2 inch square
Quilted: Hand quilted random squares with random patterns
Work Schedule: Randomly for a month, but most work done in the last week and a half. (I'm a pressure worker!)
Fabrics: Random scraps for the heart, and low-volume and tone-on-tone prints for the background. These were mostly found at Joann's, but some were scraps.
Binding and Back: Fabric from Joann's. The back is my binding. I just used my quick fold over method, which will be featured for Tutorial Tuesday next week.

Some up close shots of the quilting I did. I'm a fan of big stitch and chaining. Actually, I just love hand quilting! It's my favorite part! I will post about my process next week sometime.

And last, but not least, a picture of my sketch... you can also see some butterflies I was playing around with.

Did you make anything special for your mom for Mother's Day?
