Flowers from our garden.

I joined Cheryl`s Initial Valentines Swap of gone stitching blogspot .
I stitched Janice Woods Quaker Motifs  Freebie heart pattern.
Using DMC v115 .
Then using a motif heart and Michell   @  http://michellsplace.blogspot.com/
initial I complete this side.


As you can see I added heart sweets and a heart shape tin of full of sweets too.
This is the other side.
I made it into a needle booklet.


This is the thread holders and felt needle pages.


My lovely surprise from Helen @ www.lemuronastick.blogspot.com 
A lovely initial heart,an amazing mug mat (love the entwining hearts) and 
a selection of chocolate kisses. Yum.
Thankyou Helen for the lovely gifts and it was lovely having a chat to you.


She has stitched this so beautifully and I now have it hanging off one of the little draws on my treasured wall unit.
Thankyou Cheryl for hosting such a lovely swap.
Well hope you are all having a lovely day.
Thank you for visiting .

  1. Lovely posy from your husband Clare. Its so meaningful when they do something like that isn't it. My husband has always picked roses for me from the garden and used to put them in a milk bottle for me when I got up in the morning. Love you heart that you made for the swap.
