I downloaded the free Heart of Hearts pattern here and got to work.
I picked out some white fabric that I think is a poly blend. Most of my fabric is donated, so I'm not exactly sure where this came from.
Then, I got stitching. this is a BIG design and took a long time to stitch-about 45 minutes. Good thing I didn't have to do all of the stitching myself. I do so love my new embroidery machine :) It's a Brother pe770 and I got it used. It is a real work horse and I'd recommend it to anyone. Just remember to change the needle every once in a while! That's usually when I start having troubles and go, oh, yeah, change the needle lady!
Would you like a white panel machine embroidered with this heat of hearts? Just leave a note on this post and I will pick a random winner on Saturday around noon. You will get the center panel embroidered in red thread and you can make your own pillow or use it in a quilt or wall hanging.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today and be sure to check out everyone else on the hop.

Cute pillow!! I love the embroidered heart. Thanks for the chance.
BEAUTIFUL!! I love the embroidery - it's so elegant and modern all at once. The color you used is gorgeous, too. I've been eyeing embroidery machines more and more now and wish that I would have invested in one when I was shopping for my last machine but to be honest, I was intimidated by them, lol. It's good to know that you like your Brother if I ever am looking for a used one - sounds like you got a good deal out of it!
I love your project - thank you for sharing and Happy Valentine's Day to you!
Love the pillow...love the giveaway...it's all about love today!

That's a beautiful pillow and I love the design. BTW, you said the design was free - may I ask where you from where did you download it. I also have an embroidery machine and several years later...I still love it and am fascinated to watch it work. If my name is drawn, choose another as I have my own machine; I do thank you, though. :) Happy V Day!
Hi!! It is beautiful!!! Very sweet!!! Love it!!! Thank You
Love my pe770. Will have to down load that file. So pretty!
Beautiful design. After seeing that, I think I'll start saving for an embroidery machine!
Would I? YES, I would love to win that gorgeous embroidered heart. I am paying someone to embroider some tree designs for a quilt I am working on. I'll have to see if she has anything like your heart.
