First off a Whimsical Heart!
Design - "Whimsical Heart"
Designer - Ewe & Eye & Friends
Fabric - 32 count Thistle Pink Lakeside linen
Fibers - DMC & Anchor - 1 strand over 2 threads
Started - 4 February 2014
Completed - 16 March 2014
I did not want to use DMC 310 (black) to outline the eyelet stitches in the interior of the heart. I ended up using DMC 3688 which was two shade darker than DMC 3686 which was used to fill in the pink heart. I think it turned out really well. The chart also called for some of the flowers to be stitched with a satin stitch. I did not care the for look, so I cross stitched them instead. It did turn out to be kind of a wild and crazy heart - pretty whimsical after all.
