Hello friends nice to see you all once again. With Valentines approaching once again. We decided to bring a some hearts. This French wire heart was once used to hold sales receipts I believe. I luv the way the wire has been braided and made into the shape of a heart. I wonder if it was hand made.


This heart shaped pincushion looks like it was once part of a crazy quilt. But this is how I found it when I rescued it from the thrift store.

And here is a collection of primitive pin cushions made long ago. To help women with there sewing need by holding sharp needles. This one is dated 1907 and has glass beads.
Enjoyed your heart collection, especially the metal one!
