 BeckyBee's Stitching Hive 2010-04-15:
Link: A year in the making...
I stitched this almost 1 year ago and today I was able to do the finishing on it thanks to Carol :) (that sweet Shay also sent a tin last month but it was a bit too small-I WILL be using it as well Shay for another finish) The tin from Carol arrived in today's mail and I was SO excited to get started on the finishing that I RAN down to my stitching room and that's where I stayed for the next 2 hours :)! And here are the fruits of my finishing efforts :) I LOVED doing the finishing on this one and I LOVE how it turned out. I wasn't fond of all the extra fabric showing around the design
so I finished mine closer to the shape of the heart template :) Thank you again Carol and THANK you for the YUMMY homemade cookies you included!! They are delicious!!! :) :) :)

Stephanie (Joie de Bayou)-Yes there is batting under the stitched piece-and it is laced onto a piece of acid free board cut into a heart shape. The board is then glued to the top of the outside of the tin. And the inside is some lovely patriotic and star print fabric I had in my fabric stash!
