Heartfelt Wishes

We are well into January and the snow has piled up around our house ... brrrrr, it is cold!  I love to retreat to my studio when the weather is like this, and working on this red heart piece has been a great diversion.

The heart itself is needle felted with hand dyed wool roving in shades of red-orange-purple. It was then hand stitched (with hand dyed and variegated threads) to a background that is scarlet red dupioni silk that was free motion quilted on the diagonal.  The layered threads and beads have embellished the heart that will speak of love to whomever is gifted this little piece.  The heart is mounted in a white frame that can be hung on the wall or can stand on a shelf. Frame size 9" x 11".


This framed heart is now available in my Etsy shop
