Rustic Hearts Printable Collage Sheet


TGIF, dearies! Here are some "decorated" rustic hearts to print and cut out, and a set of plain, too.

I love vintage textiles and am working on a set of hearts featuring barkcloth and novelty prints. I went to the fabric store yesterday after work. I went for tapestry needles, but looked around at the fabric. 

While there are many pretty designs, I didn't see the wide variety of the stores of yesteryear, which were bursting with inexpensive printed yardage in fun, fanciful designs. Those designs of yesterday fetch a high price today. I saw a small 1960s barkcloth curtain panel featuring cavorting horses go for nearly $200 on an auction site.



But here are my little hearts - click and click again to see them larger:

  4. I love barkcloth...it makes me think of a more glamorous time in America. You will see them in old movies , sometimes. 200 dollars is very high to me. LOL. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
