In several boxes,

I have stacks of small cuts of fabric. I always plan to make quilt squares and create a quilt, however, once in a while, I can find good use for such small pieces. I created this little hanging heart,...........to give to friends when we get together..........with some little surprise tucked inside of the pocket.
Sort of "let's remember this day" kind of thing..........
 I enjoyed making the beaded flowers so much, I decided to stitch them on to the front panel.
I think this would also be cute with a small embroidered design or initial stitched on to the front.............what do you think??

    You're right, an embroidered initial would be very pretty too.
