Stories of Kindness from Around the World

Stitching Lives with the Gift of Heartpins


--by Subh, posted May 30, 2018
I've been stitching heartpins and gifting them to everyone possible and if you ask me why I do it, it's because of the joy that just bursts forth. The smile that lights up at the sight of the heartpin is worth anything you'd wish for and it goes further. From that moment on,there's a connection.

We exchange warm hugs , smiles and a million 'thank yous'. This hobby that has so attracted me has opened my heart and brought me out of my cocoon. Now, I don't mind starting a conversation with a stranger, wishing him or her well and gifting a pin because I know that this little piece of art will do its magic of breaking all barriers. We bond and share stories and next time our paths cross , we greet and smile which is enough to brighten the day.

This morning I received a heart warming post on Instagram from a friend who I'd gifted a blue and white spotted heartpin. She shared that along with the shells collected from the beach, the heartpin would travel to the NETHERLANDS to cheer up a friend who lost his wife. She loved sea shells and the colours blue and white. 
So, here's why I make and make and make heartpins :)
