The fobs are all made of wool felt, embroidery floss, sewing thread, baker's twine, and polyfill. They are all sewn entirely by hand.
Here they are in the pint-size canning jar I challenged myself to fill with fobs. It took 34 of these little hearts to fill this jar:
And here they are, all laid out :
The bright flower fob, below, is my favorite. Which one is yours? If you leave a comment and mention which ones you like best, you might just win one of them! On July 11th I will randomly choose three lucky winners to receive one fob each. Please be sure I have a way to contact you if you win.

These are all so cute! Makes it hard to pick favorites... But the ones I love the most (in no particular order) are the ones with the sewing machines - the detail of the spools on top really is the icing on the cake, the one with the three button flowers and the one that is also your favorite.
They look amazing altogether. I think that my absolute favourite is the little button flowers. After that there are so many to pick from but the watermelon, boat, toadstools, sun and moon also stand out for me.
They are adorable! I have three faves - the gray with the pink sewing machine; the one with the red bird; and the white one with the white cloud. You have been very industrious!
I really like the 4-leaf clover. My daughter are in 4-H and it would be fun to give it to her.
Oh, I looked at ALL of those great scissor fobs and EEEP!!! I didn't post there for a very long time, yikes! So sorry Leslie!
My favourite... well they are ALL so beautiful, let's start with saying that. But my favourite? The lemon slice! Just because I love the colour and shape of a lemon oh and the smell too ;-)
You are so talented, Leslie! And I promise to go to your heart challenge blog more often and actually post there!
Pick ONE favorite? Well, if I can only pick one, my eyes are drawn to the watermelon :)
It seems you've made one for every taste. I like the one that looks like a leaf with the ladybug on it, the bumblebee, and the mushrooms. The variety you've come up with is fantastic and all so well done!
They all look so beautiful together. Lovely bright colours. I love the bee & the ladybug. It's very hard to choose just one.

The white heart with the pink sewing machine is my absolute fave!

They are all lovely. My two favorites are the one with the button flowers and the one with the mushrooms on it.

I love ALL of them, would be happy to win any one of them!
They are wonderful... all of them... BUT the dark green one with the ladybug really caught MY eye! Truthfully I would love to win any of them!

Thanks for chance to win one! Thaney are ALL amazing! :)
My favourites are the mushroom one and any of the fruit, although I like the kiwi best of those. And I like the bird one, too!
They are all pretty but I like the bird and the button flowers the best. Would be so nice to win!
I love the "Toadstools/Mushrooms", they all great my second one would be the "fried egg!!"
What a great idea!!!! I collect hearts and would LOVE to win one of your beautiful designs. Thanks.
What a great idea, Love them all, but the sewing machine, I think is my favorite, but all very nice.Vera Adams
I love all of the hearts you've been making, and I am awed by the fact you are keeping this up (I struggled with the 30 crafting days of June challenge!).
I simply cannot choose one favourite - I love the bee (something to do with my name!), the bigger of the ladybugs on the dark green leaf is lovely, the black cat reminds me of so many cats (5 out of the 8 I've had/have have been/are black!). I love the flower ones, and the boat . . . so many simply wonderful designs!
Thank you for sharing your creations with us. I know I don't often leave a comment, but love receiving the updates, and they are often a bright spot in my gloomy days.
They are all very sweet! My favorites: the red bird, the goldfish, the bright flower, and the three flowers. But they are all lovely! Thanks for the giveaway!
I love these mini hearts, they're very cute and beautifully sew. I love the sewing machine and the one with mushrooms. I think I'll have a go and do one myself, I made a larger version for last Christmas to hang on our tree.
Hi, those are very cute! I would have to say my fav is the grey one with the hot pink sewing machine, too cute! The white one is a close second but I stay away from white, always get too dirty too fast. Susan

Lesley: They are all so adorable it's hard to pick just one. I think my favorites are the white with pink sewing machine and the green one with the spool of thread. You are a very talented lady. Thank you for doing this.

My favorites are the fruit fobs and the button flower fobs. Just saw the flag fob on your blog and it is my MOST favorite! These are just adorable. Saw on your blog where you were looking for ideas -- not much help, but you need a mountain scene. (-; cwkalina@aol.com
I love all. My favorite is the sewing machines. You are very talented and very industrious.
I love them all, Leslie - my favorite is the kiwi fruit! But it is rather difficult to pick a favorite, because they are all so yummy! Nice work!
