If you know me, you know that I like to go to thrift shops. You also know that I LOVE to make things from used sweaters. Last week I picked up a pretty magenta-colored sweater, washed it and made up some sweet stuffed hearts.
What can you do with these hearts? I like to decorate with them - put them in a bowl or basket and set them out on the table. Or you can put them on a shelf as a piece of interest.
After I stitched up some hearts from the sweaters, I looked at my fabrics to see if anything matched them. I found this cute Tilda fabric and made some little pincushions to match the hearts.
They kind of all go together as a collection. I usually sew antique buttons on some of them to give them a bit of embellishment.
After I made the pincushions, I went into the stamping room to see if I had any papers to match my project. I painted a small wooden block and added some pretty papers from Stampin Up along with a Bible verse. I love how it turned out and matches the hearts. :)
Then I made a fridge magnet to match. I had fun in my craft rooms and I call that a wonderful creative day.
