GRATER WITH HEARTS AND DOVE

Olde Annie Arts presents this soft pastel gathering of hearts and a lone birds. It is so reminiscent of the colors in the quilts my great grandmother made. She made beautiful quilts. The cheesecloth bow adds an ever so soft finishing touch.

This is a one-of-a-kind gathering using an old cheese grater. Tucked in top of the grater are three hearts made from a cutter quilt, stained and baked. Tucked behind the hearts is a sweet little dove made from unbleached muslin, stained and baked to reveal a nicely age undercoat. The dove has been left unpainted. Behind the hearts and dove is some pine greenery, pine cones and cream pip berries -- everything tucked in all nice and snug. Around the top of the grater is a piece of stained cheese cloth tied into a bow. And hanging from it is a sweet little prim tag that reads "Love You Forever". (Tag may be changed to read whatever you would like.) Measures 10 inches wide by 11 inches tall.
