More Quilted Hearts - Fall Themed!

I got busy on these quilted hearts and I finished a whole bunch in a few days. I will be trying to get all of these out in the world before the middle of November, just so people can find them! I had been wanting to make more hearts all year long. I’m so glad I finally stopped and just did them.

Here are the quilted hearts I recently finished.

 
 
 
 
 

Here is where I put them! I will say that I have an easy place to put them as we have woods all around us and many people take their animals for walks in the woods. So, it’s kind of fun to put them around us thinking someone will find one and be encouraged by it!

 
 

If you are wanting more information about this - check out their website here. It is called “I Found a Quilted Heart” and people all over the globe are doing it as random acts of kindness.

I am using small pieces of things I might have designated for my strips bags if I didn’t make them into hearts. A few things I actually put in my hearts piles if I thought it would be fun to make a heart with that theme. (like the cowboy boots fabrics one). But several of these are just crumb blocks or crumb fabrics sewn together and then cut into heart shapes and then decorated.

If you’ve been with me long enough you know I made several crumb fabric quilts and I kind of burned out on them. I also didn’t really care for them all that much AND they took a long time. SO, making these hearts, and then putting them out in the world for someone to find makes perfect sense to me. They are a relatively quick finish, use a different kind of creativity than making a quilt AND I can move out small pieces of scraps or otherwise, not totally wanted fabric by me. And they can make someone happy!
