Default Three Red Hearts

While football playoffs were on, this is what I did. A 23 x 23 3/4 wallhanging that was commissioned.
Customer requested a simple wallhanging with hearts. She has a fairly large framed picture in her place of business that gets foot traffic. She adds Velcro to the back of wall hangings and attaches to picture frame, makes it look like wallhanging was framed. I did a Christmas one for her and she liked it so much, she wanted another one for Valentine's Day. I printed hearts on back of steam a seam and used various reds. Sewed applique stitch around hearts then added some free motion. I tried something new, it seemed like a good idea at the time. I did a decorative heart stitch in border, bad idea, it made wobbles and was too tight. Won't make that mistake again. Amazing how many new mistakes are possible, and how we sometimes forget old ones!

Very pretty, you must have taken the stitching out on the border; I can't see it.

Very attractive arrangement of hearts, and I really like the border floral. Can you provide identification/manufacturer of the floral piece? Thanks a lot. It has a gentle Japanese sakura look to it.
