It stitched up pretty quickly. The design called for french knots to outline the outer and inner hearts, but I thought they looked a little sloppy and well, to be honest, I really don't like french knots. I think it looks fine without them. The kit came with a little silver frame, so I'll have to get it all put together here soon. When I do, I'll take a much better picture. I really need to stop using my cell phone!

my heart
I started and finished up a Sweet Petites needlepoint kit from Dimensions tonight. I made it for my aunt who is about to start chemo. She taught me how to needlepoint years ago, so I knew I wanted to make her a little something.

That is cute. I am sure your aunt will love it. I hope she does well with the chemo.
