Well, it is time for candy and hearts and dinner out, if you are into those sort of things. We are not and we generally stay home on Valentine's Day. But I do stitch a few things for Valentine's Day as the colors tend to be reds, pinks and whites which I love!
But the Secret Stitching Sweetheart Hop is the brainchild of Jo over at Serendipitous Stitching
We sent her a photo of something that would be nice to pop up in an email and then we are supposed to post the photo on our blog today. Then we are to hop over to her blog and try to guess who our Secret Stitching Sweetheart is. I am bad at guessing games, but I love this little pillow that showed up in my email:
That is such a lovely finish I am ashamed to show mine, but here it goes!
The above pattern is from The Scarlett House and the freebie is on on Facebook and Instagram. I took some time to FFO my piece and here it is:
I put my pieces on fabric that I had. I now see why people match their threads to their finishing fabric....
This little one is from Heart in Hand
And this one is from The Scarlett House The Scarlett House Facebook. I used beads in the letters...
My brother-in-law had some clean sawdust that I used to fill the pillows.
And now they sit on my mantle although I may move them to my basket after a few days...
I also have a ton of hearts that were designed by Gay Ann Rogers:
Now to go figure out who my Secret Stitching Sweetheart is... Have a great day!

Happy Valentine's day
Beth I agree, that IS a lovely finish! I wish it were mine!! I love all of your collection. Very impressive. Happy Valentine's Day!
Thanks for taking part in the Secret Stitching Sweetheart Blog Hop this year.
How funny that you received a design that you had stitched yourself! Great minds really do think alike.
Your Heart collection is just gorgeous.
That's so neat, and love both finishes! Happy Valentine's Day!
Look at all of your lovely stitching! Your Valentine is gorgeous too! Thank you for sharing the designer of those hearts, I may have to check her out and get more hearts stitched up for next year :D
Happy Valentine's Day! I love this blog hop so many beautiful pieces to admire. Boy these are no different. So gorgeous. Not mine though. Love the way you finished yours too. I have the new Scarlett piece saved but can't decide if I want to do it for this year or next haha. Have a great day!
Oh, this is so pretty...but it's not mine! It's very cute though! And your own one is lovely too! And I love your bowl of smalls! Everything is so pretty! Happy Valentine's Day!
That's do cool that you received a design you've stitched. It isn't mine though. Great ornaments too. Happy Valentine's Day

So great finish, I love this pillow and the chart is lovely, but not mine. Joyeuse Saint Valentin ! xxx
Lovely heart, but not mine. I do like your collection of hearts though.
Such a lovely finish, wish it was me!
Your finishes look great and I like how you used beads. And I love all your other hearts!
Happy Valentine's Day! I so nearly stitched that design for the blog hop... but I didn't so I have to say sadly it's not mine
It is a gorgeous finish :0). I love your pillow finishes as well... lovely way to show off those pretties!

All the hearts are lovely Beth!
What a coincidence that the picture you received was of something you had stitched too!
Nice to see it in different colours!
Hugs,

It was me! so glad you liked it, and how funny that we stitched the same piece
A pretty stitch and finish from Christine.
Lots of hearts and all of them beautiful......
How neat that you received a piece you've stitched yourself! It's a lovely finish, both of them! Your pile of hearts is quite awesome too.
How fun you stitched the same design you received! I think they are both beautiful in their own way.
