hearts~hearts~hearts

I'm going a little crazy with the hearts I think.

I can't seem to stop.

I make them by the dozens.

I do things like this all the time.

Go overboard making things I love.

(you should see me with baking cookies) I just can't stop once I start))

Using all the pretty vintage laces, new and old fabrics and bits and bobs 

that I have been collecting for years.

You have no idea how hard it is for me to use my little stashes of pretties.

I am a hoarder of beautiful things and I have a hard time parting with them.

I like to keep them in big glass jars and just stand and stare at them.

So this is BIG. 

Really BIG!

                                             I have been making them for friends and family for 

Valentine's Day.

And true to form...

                                                                I just keep making them.


                                                  Like the sachets I made before Christmas.

Once I got started I

                                                                       just couldn't quit.

Sewing and stuffing~

and stuffing and sewing.

At least a platter of these have a lot less calories in them than the sugar cookies 

I've been wanting to bake.

And they will last much longer too!

Cookies?

I just may make tomorrow  baking day after all and give the sewing machine a break.

I will be sure to leave a few for Valentine photos (maybe : o)

The little cherub graphic came from Karen at the Graphics Fairy.

I want to thank the assistant editor of Romantic Homes Beth Livesay

for asking me a couple of months ago if they could feature my blog in their March issue.

Of course I said YES!

I can't wait to get my own copy and see the page myself. 

I really appreciate being asked to participate in such a lovely publication.
