I *heart* cross stitch April 11

Plotting a cross stitch project is really quite satisfying. Working all those sweet little x’s is also satisfying. The last time I did any cross stitch I was about 10 years old, but I remembered how nice it felt to work lots of perfect little cross stitches and I got a craving for it a bit ago. The craving intersected with a new friend’s birthday and here we have the result. Even though the birthday, craving, and motif idea happened back in February I only just sat down to work it up last week.
I now find myself wanting to make more cross stitch pieces based on themes my loved ones like. And that stripey heart motif is too precious not to use again… I’m also considering a little cross stitch memorial to the ‘87 Cabriolet that I loved so dearly and recently said farewell to.
