More handmade embellishments - shabby chic fabric hearts.

Well, it was my attempt at shabby chic, or a vintage look, anyhow!  I was really excited starting these - I've been inspired by a very talented friend of mine who has a small business - Castle Crafts - and makes the most gorgeous fabric hearts and other fabric decorations.  I wanted to have a go myself - hopefully to use in my upcoming project (though not in the way I originally planned!), and so here is the result.  I actually don't love them in the way I hoped I would, but they're OK, and I won't give up - I WILL try again....and again......and again.....!!!

 

 They're not backed or padded yet, I still have to pin down exactly how I'm going to use them before taking the final step.
