The new Cricut Rotary Cutting self healing mat, Rotary Blade and Ruler are excellent quality. They all come very handy in the Cricut Rotary Cutting Kit! The 12 x 24 inch sized Cricut Ruler is total awesome sauce to have full control when prepping fabric for your Cricut FabricGrip Mats!

You Are Loved Heart Quilt

This is the layout of the You Are Loved Quilt Pattern. Recognize the half square triangles and full squares in the pattern below.

Here is everything that will be included in your quilt kit.

Let’s make those half square triangles

Arrange your blocks and rows of squares. Take a photograph on your smart phone. Use the photograph as a reference as you are stitching your blocks into rows at a 1/4 inch seam allowance. Join your rows together by carefully pinning and nesting your seams together.

Remember you want to place your black word search block towards the center of your quilt. Use embroidery floss with a chenille or large eye needle to circle the positive words on your word search block.
