100 Year Old Linen And Vintage Hearts

Hi all,
Remember that piece of vintage Irish monogrammed linen I was trying to do something with but was too scared to ruin?
Well I did make something with it...a filled heart pillow.
Here it is above with some others I have made up for My Store.
I have teamed it with some beautiful Belgian linen which is 100 years old!
It is stunning and there is not a blemish on it. Figured they would be happy together. The back of it is natural and blue ticking. That part is not vintage, but I love it just the same =0)

The other filled hearts for The Store have also been made with this gorgeous linen. Some with other vintage fabrics, and some with newer pieces.


This is a part of one of the bigger pillows which measure 35cm x 35cm (14" x 14"). So not tiny.
There are 3 sizes in all. The largest which I mentioned above.
The medium size which is 24cm x 24cm (10" x 10"),
and the smaller size which is 19cm x 19cm (7 1/2" x 7 1/2").
They all have a piece of the 100 year old Belgian linen in them and some have vintage ticking, vintage floral and I have also used fabric from French General and some modern quilting florals which have that older style pattern to them, like the floral to the left of this photo.
