Ornies..funny word, I think that's what these are called. Ornaments without strings that you gather into a bowl or basket? Anyway, Nicole and I were in a little "ornie" phase a couple of years ago and we made tons of these little heart pillows. We use to make everything grubby and distressed, I still love a little grubby, I just have to be careful, because I get carried away and then it looks like it belongs in the garbage! :)
These are pretty simple and self-explanatory to make.
Find a heart shape and size you prefer......
Trace onto fabric and cut (you can tea dye the fabric to give it a grubby look)
Sew right sides together
and leave a section to stuff,
turn inside out and stuff,
hand-stitch the heart closed,
and then we tied some burlap strips around them.
....I love the fabrics, they are so fun to pull out each year.

Adorable, love the burlap too!
These are so cute! I think these would look great in a basket on an entry table or coffee table!
Totally adorable!

Come on by my blog and grab your blog award. I've really enjoyed reading your blog and wanted to thank you for all your posts.
I am really starting to feel my age now. I can remember when these were in (I won't say how long ago). We used them like this in a bowl. They were also on strings, like ornaments or one on each end hung over "anything". It is such a cute look.
Thanks for sharing!
Adorable! I don't sew but I keep saying I am gonna give handsewing a try. Something like this can't be too hard, right! Must find a heart shape I can work with and then give it a go. Blessings for a beautiful day! :) Tammy
