Quilted Hearts - yes, again! Finally!
It’s past time to get the next twenty hearts shown to you and where I put them.
I know it’s been a long while since I had some hearts finished. But I wanted to get some hearts out this fall, so I figured I had to stop and just do them!
This fall hasn’t been super easy, but things are coming along and I’m gradually beginning to feel less overwhelmed about a lot of things.
But once again, I do love these hearts!
Here they are! I tried to focus on fall looking prints/ribbons, etc.
I did use a lot of misc. pieces that I had leftover from various things. These are often in lieu of making more crumb blocks/quilts. I may make more of those, but honestly, I really love how these hearts look, and had missed not making some in the last year.
I put most of these near the road in the woods - or at least hanging on trees - but here are my pics of where I put them I had tried to go and put these out on Sunday afternoon, but it felt like everyone and their brother was out walking their dogs right then, so I just came on home and decided a different day/time woudl better. I don’t really like to be seen doing this. It’s supposed to be anonymous so the people can “find” them.
For some reason I have 21 different quilts in various places, but only 20 hearts photographed. I’m confused, but I did put those all up a bit ago.
After this particular group of hearts (the fall ones), I will possibly switch over and use “Look! A quilted heart”. But I’m still thinking about that. For people to report it to them, they have to join a Facebook group, and I know a lot of people don’t do that.
Anyway, I hope you’ve enjoyed those hearts! I’ve enjoyed getting some more done - it’s been a while, as I mentioned before. I’ve wanted to get them out - esp. when I think of that one lady who found one while walking her dog and was so touched!!! Let me share that with you in case you’ve forgotten.

17 lipca 2024 będąc w parku na spacerze z psem, znalazłam to piękne serduszko. Jestem samotną emerytką ,ten drobiazg sprawił mi wiele radości od samego rana.Bardzo ciekawa inicjatywa, brawa dla pomysłodawców.Może takie serduszko mogłoby być biletem do nawiązania z kimś miłej korespondencji? Pozdrawiam matki pomysłu i wszystkich znalazców.Janina z Józefowa.

On July 17, 2024, while walking my dog in the park, I found this beautiful heart. I'm a single retiree, and this little thing brought me so much joy this morning. A very interesting initiative, kudos to the creators. Perhaps such a heart could be a ticket to engaging in a pleasant correspondence with someone? Best regards to the creators of the idea and all the finders. Janina from Józefów.
The heart was this one -
And you know what? Her note has left me wanting to make more. It is exciting for me to think that some people really enjoy finding these - and that definitely makes me want to keep putting them out there!
Thanks again for coming along with me on this journey.
Have a great day wherever you are reading this!
