Here’s the heart wall hanging with its background in progress. The three thrift store sweaters worked well together. I just cut random pieces and pin them in place. Sometimes I have to cut a certain shape, like around the curves of the heart, or between two pieces already in place. Mostly I try to have the knitting going in different directions, and similar pieces spaced apart from each other.
This piece is so beautifully small, that it took me only three late nights to piece the whole thing! And here it is. You would be surprised to see it in real life. It looks so different than it does in the photo. Is it the scale that makes the difference?
It is probably ready for quilting. Luckily I need to buy some fabric for the back, so I have a few days to decide. After quilting and binding, I’ll add trim and buttons and try to make some sense out of this chaos.
