I love the designs from The Sweetheart Tree. Always fun to do, and a good way to practice stitches other than a traditional 'X'!
The Sweetheart Tree's "Happiness Is". I did this for my now ex-husband. I really like the way this one turned out on the blue fabric with the embellishments. I think the pink frame really makes it look nice.

The Sweetheart Tree's "Flamin' Chili Pepper Heart." I've been waiting for well over six months to get this back from the framer. Heart shaped mats are a pain to cut, but I'm more than willing to wait for them. I plan on having all my Sweetheart Tree hearts done with the heart cutouts.

"Jack & the Silver Spider" by The Sweetheart Tree. I think the look on his face is just too cute!

"Snowflakes In Abundance" by the Sweetheart Tree. I love the way this one turned out. At the bottom, instead of just doing stitches, I added beads. I had also picked a different color bead than what the pattern called for, and I think it looks better that way.

"Pumpkin Time" by The Sweetheart Tree. A friend I met through the Cross Stitch Pals BB taught me how to stitch 2 over 2, and this is the pattern I picked to start with. Ok, so I jumped in with both feet! And yes, that is a piece of blue lint on it. I took it back to the framer's and now it's gone, but I've been too lazy to rescan the pic!
