Welcome to the fifth and last day of the Hearts on Fire blog hop hosted by Carol of JustLetMeQuilt .
Due to a time consuming project I started towards the end of last year, I only had time to make a couple of small projects for this blog hop. But, anyway, here's my entry: a pouch and a pincushion.
For this blog hop I searched through my stash for suitable fabrics, and I found these two with heart print and absolutely no red. In addition I added a sturdy fabric for the bottom of the pouch. I quilted the pouch with straight lines in a neutral color, and then used raw edge applique to add the three small hearts to the pouch.
I used a recycled zipper, and made my own zipper pull with a little heart attached.
Who has got enough pincushions? At least I needed a new one to keep next to my sewing machine. The back of the pincushion is the other heart print.
Last but not least I have to show an oldie but goodie: A couple of years ago I made this tote with rainbow hearts. This is bag I use often, it has a recessed zipper and is very practical. The tote is colorful and bright against the fresh fallen snow.
Here's the full schedule of the blog hop, go check out the projects from the other participants!

Thanks to Carol for organizing another great blog hop!
Two pretty heart projects. Nice work.
ReplyDeleteAll very cute projects. I love bags and pouches so much.
ReplyDeleteAnything embellished with hearts is beautiful, and these three projects are no exception. That pincushion is calling my name!
ReplyDeleteI love all of these, but especially the little pouch. Bright, beautiful and the perfect spot to keep something Quilty...
ReplyDeleteI love all your projects, but especially the pincushion!
ReplyDeleteYour projects are cute! I like all of them, and I like the heart fabric from your stash! The little heart zipper pull is a neat touch! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteCute, cute. Both of the heart fabrics are brilliant. The pouch will come in handy; I was already thinking I'd use it for my take-along projects. I, too, think a person can't have too many pincushions. What a happy looking bag you made - perfect for wintery days.
ReplyDeleteLove all three projects. The Pincushion is so cute.
ReplyDeleteHeart warming projects. I love the colors and fabrics in the small pouch and pincushion. Thank for sharing in the hop .. <3 Pat
ReplyDeleteLove that heart print that's just black and white. Fun projects, and your rainbow heart tote is so cheerful!
ReplyDeleteYour pouch and pinny are just so sweet. I love the fabrics. Your rainbow bag is gorgeous. It sets my heart on fire!
ReplyDeleteLove your bags and pincushion.
ReplyDeleteLove the details you included on your zip pouch especially the zipper pull. Making the applique hearts to match the fabric was another great idea.
ReplyDeleteFin pung, får aldri for mange av disse. Likte også godt den veska. Lenge siden jeg har brukt noen av mine svarte og hvite stoffer. Takk for inspirasjon.

ReplyDeleteI love the fabrics you chose for your hearts. They really pop on the backgrounds.
