I like to work with fabric equally as well as with paper when I am designing my collages. This little heart is a combination of the two. I've used muslin, batting and various fabrics to create the heart shape itself. I then stuffed it with tiny treasures of found papers, shells, beads, etc. and machine stitched it in a quilted design. I like to call them remnants as it is a great way to use up little scrap pieces of fabric and ephemera that I'm sure all of us artists and crafters have lying around all over the place:)
What a cute idea! I am always looking for ways to use up those pieces that are too small for anything...and two of my favorite mediums are fabric and beads!
