I was finishing up a quilt for a private swap (that I can’t share just yet), and I needed a binding for the quilt. I think this Tiny Hearts print by Timeless Treasures should work perfectly!
Tiny Hearts – Timeless Treasures
I found the print online in the Sew Stitching Happy Etsy store, and she threw in a few extra charm squares when it was shipped. How cute is this bundle? I just love supporting Etsy shop owners, and Cassie’s service was fantastic.

The tiny hearts worked perfectly, and I love how many you can see even across the small width of a binding.
I was also the lucky winner of a giveaway from Lorna @Sew Fresh Quilts this week. I won a $35 gift certificate to Gotham Quilts, and while I had intended to use the gift certificate to pick up a fat eighth bundle of the Alison Glass Handcrafted line, but they were sold out. So, instead, I picked out 5 half yard cuts to fill in my stash a bit.

Linking up with Molli Sparkles’ Sunday Stash to see what everyone else bought this week!
Those little hearts look perfect, at least on the back..
I think those colorful hearts will bring happiness into anyone’s life 🙂
Yvonne, Each of your new fabrics are beautiful! So happy for you to have won that wonderful prize! Your binding does look absolutely perfect all the way, just perfectly sewn on and it is nice to sew on the binding. Thank you for sharing and have a wonderful creative day!
I’m excited to see what this is! I love the quilting…come on Yvonne! 🙂 Congrats on the win! You picked some wonderful fabric. I honestly am so jealous. I cannot remember the last time I bought any fabric. I may be going through withdrawls!
1/2 yard cuts are the perfect size for stash building. These are good choices! How fun to win that gift certificate. 🙂
hmm. I like the endearments in red, and those ladybugs sure are nice. Congratulations on your win!
So many pretty fabrics, I love the tiny hearts and the red text print. 🙂
The pink leaves and the turquoise are my favourite. Lucky you! That hearts fabric is so sweet for a binding too.
That heart fabric is so adorable. Lucky you winning a gift certificate. Fabric is always better when it’s free!!
Love the prints you chose with your gift certificate! Congrats again on winning, looking forward to seeing what you make with them!
Sometimes I get frustrated picking out fabrics for binding. Such a small space to work with and you want your fabric to shine in those little areas too. The heart fabric was an awesome find for the binding.
I know I should be admiring the cute, tiny hearts, but I am in shock at the fineness of the truly matchstick quilting.
Beautiful new fabrics–the botanical is lovely! Those hearts are so tiny, and your quilting is amazing–can’t wait to see the project completed!
I managed not to add to my stash this week.
Those itty bitty hearts are perfect! I didn’t realize how small they are.
Wow! You scored big time here, Yvonne. I am drooling over that Honey Hive in Turquoise. Nice choices!
Great binding fabric, I used tiny hearts once for binding and loved it, but that was just one colour, I like your multi-coloured ones even more. Lovely choices with your giveaway win too.
