The Heart of the Matter
If you're a long-time reader you may remember that I had the opportunity to visit French General last January for their Art of Craft event. One of the classes, with Pam Garrison and Charlotte Lyons, was making a embellished heart. This is my creation from the class.
I've made several hearts since then for friends and to sell. Recently a dear friend purchased two from my Etsy shop and ordered four more in burlap. Since she's such a sweetie AND my best customer, I made one extra for her. Here are the five:
I was pleased with them all, but I think my favorite is the last one I made, in the upper left corner. The applique is very old and was purchased at a garage sale earlier this year. These were so much fun to make, and were a good opportunity to use some of the trim I've been hoarding.
