With Valentine's Day right around the corner, it seems a good time for heart shaped projects. I've had hearts on my mind since I saw the class that Pam Garrison and Charlotte Lyons are teaching at French General this weekend. Oh, how I would love to go!
So, when my friend Danielle Muller asked me to be in her Valentine Heart swap, my response was YES, YES, YES!
I used a vintage linen napkin to make my hearts. I sewed it and stuffed it, then hand sewed on some vintage lace from a wedding dress. I added a velvet flower from an old hat, and some pearl buttons to attach the ribbon.
It's a great way to use up scraps...now I'm off to make a few more!
Your heart is so very pretty!! If only I would learn how to use my sewing machine! Love those hearts by Pam and Charlotte, too! It would be so fun to take their class!
