Shades of Green

I have a WIP list as long as my arm, so what do you think I have been working on this week? Well, if you guessed any of my WIP's you would be very wrong. Naturally, I decided to start a new project!

I pulled out my bag of green scraps and my Sizzix die-cutter and cut out 40 different fabric hearts.

Then put them together on a piece of natural linen from the rather large box I brought back from Latvia. Can you see where I am going with this??

Hopefully, I will have finished this (cushion, table runner, wallhanging??) in time for the celebrations this weekend. Then it is back to the WIP list I promise :)

  1. Oh, how I wish I had one of the cutters. It would make my life so much easier. I LOVE you idea for the St. Patrick’s Day runner. It is going to be so pretty and so festive...just waiting for you to use year after year. I love making my table runners and change them all the time.

  13. i think we are officially friends Fiona because when i read your first sentence i knew you were not working on any of your WIP's!! I think your hearts are very festive and sometimes you need to stop working on what you should be working on and work on what you want to be working on :)

  16. I must invest in one of those cutters!!! I'm sure they'd save heaps of time. Look forward to seeing all those hearts sewn ready for St Patricks Day.

  17. green being my most favourite colour makes this so appealing, love the heart shapes you have created, are they backed with bondaweb or are your turning the edges in quite a job is you are.
