Sweetheart pincushions are needlework inspiration with
an appropriate history for Valentine's Day, 2014.
These heart-shaped pincushions were made by British soldiers
recovering in hospitals during World War I.
2014 is the 100th anniversary of the Great War.
Perhaps we will see some exhibits featuring these collectible pieces.
