Heart & Mitten Pillow

I love this piece. It combines so many things that I love that I'm hoping you'll love too. Let's start with the red striped old linen towel used so many times it was wrought with holes so I carefully cut a large mitten shape and then I primly embroidered a heart on it. "Hands to work, Hearts to God" but in the winter, well, it needs to be a mitten. The mitten was primly stitched to one of my favorite civil war repro cotton prints. It's stuffed with cotton batting and scraps of cotton so it has a wonderful primitive look and feel. Measures about 9" x 6". Kindly asking $40 and this includes shipping. The pillow will be carefully packaged and put in the post after payment is received.
