This week we stitch the pink pumpkin (lower right) in honor of St. Valentine’s Day in a heart damask, Crazy Hearts, below.
I stitch it using Glisten and Ty=Di Just Cotton. In a switch from the usual metallic foregropound, matte background, these hearts are stitched in the matte thread making them stand out against the glittering background.
