Julianne and I decided to exchange valentine pieces this year. This is what I chose to stitch for her. That little bird just spoke to me. I know that the package has been delivered, but I haven't heard from her. She was out of the country last week, so she may still be. I hope she likes what I stitched for her.
I'm not one to stitch Valentines for myself, but the B and V in this piece really struck my fancy, so I had to stitch it. The finishing took me most of the day today. I could not get a handle on piecing it together. It happens when you start to age! LOL! But, I did finally get it stitched together. I like it very much.
Both designs are freebies. I am sorry to say I did not make a notation of who the designers are.
***edited*** Be My Valentine is a primitivebetty's design. On Julianne's I used Cupid thread and on mine I used Buckeye Scarlet. Both were stitched on opalescent white 32ct fabric.
Well, tomorrow nite is the Super Bowl. I don't have a favorite team in this contest, but I am drawn to that kid QB Kaepernick from San Francisco. May the best team win. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Great finishes. I am sure your friend will love it. CJ in OK
ReplyDeleteThe one that you stitched for yourself is from primitive betty, I believe. Love the beads on the ric-rac!
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteall your ornaments are so pretty!!!
Oh so pretty! :)
ReplyDeleteBecky, both Valentines are so pretty and I love the reds that you chose. The finishing is amazing, too! Very nicely done!
ReplyDeleteBoth are lovely finishes.
ReplyDeleteBoth Valentine pieces are wonderful. The piece with the beautiful B and V seems to be very popular among the stitchers as I have seen it on several blogs already. And I have printed it out, too.
