This is my February ornament for the Bride's Tree SAL. I showed a picture of it in a previous post before the backstitching and this is the after. This design is Forget-Me-Not Heart from Cross Quick Magazine, Feb/Mar issue 1990. It is stitched on 18 count aida with DMC threads. I am really pleased with how it turned out. I have picked out the pattern for the March ornament and will probably start stitching it tonight. The theme is a basket of flowers. I am stitching a bouquet.I want to practice finishing before I actually work on the Bride's Tree ornaments. I have some pieces from years ago that I can use. I won't be upset if they don't look perfect, but practice makes perfect.
Just to let you know, my mom is doing well. She has a doctor's appointment this week for a check-up. I take her every few months for blood work, she has hypothyroidism and has had mini strokes in the past. I have to keep up with her meds, plus I always have questions for her doctor. She is doing fine.
Take care

Glad to hear your mom is doing well and hope you are too.
Thank you for the kind words and thoughts for my BIL and family....his daughter is better since he is here. Total bed rest, except to doctor appointments and the bathroom. Please keep them in your thoughts. Hugs to you and your mom, Lidna

Hi Teresa! I wanted to stop by and wish you and your mother a very Happy Easter!
I am glad to hear she is doing well. Mini strokes would be frightening so I can imagine you would have many questions for the doctor.
Your ornament is soooo beautiful!
Hugs ~
