Lovely! I think it would be pretty hanging on a door or a wall also. You did a great job keeping the rounded edges smooth. Thanks for sharing.

I like that! Visually appealing...not a lot of distraction which is good (at least for me). This is a nice pattern.

Overnight the fibers relaxed? and I didn't like how the top looked wrinkled. I could iron it everytime I want to use it but decided to do concentric rows of stitching instead to take out the wrinkles and made it firmer. Here is picture of the one stitched and the wrinkled one beside it.[ATTACH=CONFIG]560704[/ATTACH]

Here it is all stitched and I like it better. I could have separated the hearts a bit but I knew the needle holes would show on the white fabric if I did.[ATTACH=CONFIG]560705[/ATTACH]

Stitching each shape down sure makes a difference. I have the pattern for a Christmas one and will do some stitching on each shape before putting it all together.
Love your heart one.
