    Oh Jeanine...........your February Heart Cat block is just gorgeous!! I do love it a lot. You did such a nice job making it & your color's & embellishments are wonderful. Did you do the Rose work by hand? It is just lovely. Thank you so much for sharing with all of us. Now we wait for June!!

    Thank you.
    SulaBug: yes, by hand. Only way I know how to embroider. Used bullion knots for the roses, french knots for the little berries, and lazy daisy for the leaves. It was fun, once the agonizing decision making was over.

    Mimiknoxtaylor: I didn't see that victorian. Guess my town is getting to me (Port Townsend is a Victorian town). Thanks

    I love your block, Jeanine. I think it looks chabby chiq leaning towards Victorian. Beautiful work.

    Jeanine.........Thank you so much for sharing your embroidery stitches with all of us. I haven't tried the Bullion knots stitch yet, but I am really excited to try it out. I love to embroider & have done so for many years. What a great inspiration you are to all of us!!
