The Last in My "First" series (for 2006) of hearts

Hello all,
well the first series of hearts has come to an end, I held off posting this one as Sandie was coming down and was to pick it up when she visited me. I made this heart using all Hannah ribbons, and using Edmar Lola thread in a matching red for the few seams that were left following the roses placement, I really wanted the roses to stand out and be the centre of attention rather then the seams being the centre of attention - so the seam treatment is very simple and unadorned and made to blend in with the fabric. I hope that Sandie likes her heart - as this is from my heart to hers and was a heart I really enjoyed making as it flowed from beginning to end.

Jullias Hex Box pattern my version







well here they are the sides and top - its is way outta of my comfort zone- there is some purple in there and pink and theres a lot of that deep red I was talking of- I have used mostly Colour Streams threads- in the thicker thread ?? I can think of the name but I think its called Exotic but its so soft and silky to work with and there are such brilliant colours - the ribbon I used on the top of the Box embroidery is actually Bears dying playaround - I even have some of this riotous coloured ribbon left cant think what dye I used but hey ity is such a close colour match to the Colour Stream thread that I like that I was rapt with the result and then thought heck what can I use this on and so here it is......... I am so totally not sure I like what I have done and thats not lokking for copmpliments I really mean that - the one side with the topiary is driving me crazy- and I can see me either pulling it all off or taking bits and pieces of- its way to top heavy!! aand not "me" at all so its not going to remain there is it gggggg
Anyway I hope you are not to put off by my version of your pattern thank you for giving us this terrific pattern and I really really love yours!!
