A little break from the Harry Potter blocks, but still paper pieced and from Sewhooked in the Free Patterns section. I used the Linus Heart without the extra section to make these.
They were going to be cards for Valentine's Day for 6 of my grandkids, but I did send them candy, and that's really all they care about. So I still have the hearts. Either they get saved for next year's cards, or I'll use them to decorate a shirt for me, and include another heart and each will represent one of the grands. I like that idea.
This is my gift from the Valentine Floosie Swap put on by Melanie of Houseelf Doings. We were to send out a fat quarter that we wondered what we would ever do with it, some small sewn something or candy. Thank you Kigwit from TX.
Here's a close-up of the fabric. Yes, it is a half yard... you know how it goes. Generous people can't help themselves....
Aaaand I made 2 crystal balls.... a green future could be a really good future! And the second one was a brainstorm in the middle of the night. Looks like something... just can't quite tell what.
It does look like a happy future though, doesn't it?
Sew, I'm off to sew the next heart for #7 - lucky #7, my grandson, Ben... and then I should add a +, shouldn't I, to be given a paper pieced heart rounds about August 21st! (Yup! There's a lucky #8 in process right now!) I've already got oodles of ideas for baby quilts. Just need to know a gender...
Hugs,
Terri
