Two heart shapes sewn together, stuffed or not, embellished, embroidered, CQ'd,quilted, plain or fancy, anything goes. Add a loop for hanging. Choose your size. For ease of posting, envelope size is a good measurment. You can send them flat just add a note 'To be stuffed'. Sign (or not), add a message and where the hearts are from. This is a small measure of something nice to give in this terrible time.

Fantastic Felt!
This selection came from Jill, Lower Hutt, NZ. Many of you will recognise this style and know exactly who made them.
Heart felt thanks!
Thank you for the love and empathy you have shown through crafting these beautiful hearts. Evie has co-ordinated a very special project and to see 4000+ hearts on display around the walls of the Museum was a wonderful, but moving sight. I visited a number of times, and enjoyed looking at the variety of handwork, reading the messages and sharing the love which they all gave. It’s been a great comfort to know people around NZ and the world have been thinking of us over recent months. The felted heart I chose (in the second bottom photo, with the purple hanger) will always remain a treasure.
Was it you that I gave the name of the felter? The half wrong name? Why on earth I said Liz knowing full well it is Jill, I will never know!!Blame it on the overwhelming emotion of the day even though I saw you quite early on. Best Regards Evie
It was me, but I concluded it should be Jill, after viewing this site! Thanks Evie for all your efforts and the organisation of such a mammoth project. The response you received over the weekend must have been very rewarding for you. Regards, Lynda
