Silk'n Roses

This little heart is again one of those things that just happened.


It all started with a heart shaped cardboard tag from my daughter's new dress, that I liked and kept to use as a pattern, and a piece of cream silk satin cut too small for another project 
(I know, measure twice... believe me, I did.)


I stitched the outline of the heart with Portuguese stem stitch using ecru DMC perle cotton no.8 
and from there on roses started blooming... 


I am sooo happy to be stitching again!
