Filed under: Susan Portra, The Cabochons, Love
Since Love was the only fully kitted design from the Cabochons series by Susan Portra, I started with this one. Goals 21-28 from my 2024 Year in Review and Look Forward post was to kit some of these and start stitching them. Then, I acquired more of the series and it became Goals 21-31. I am making progress kitting them. More on that another time.
For Love, I lightly drew the heart outline from the template that’s provided using a red Micron pen (archival).
I’ve taken this along on several road trips and gotten a little more done each time. I don’t need a stand for it since it’s on 10″ x 10″ stretcher bars and no laying threads, so it makes a great travel piece.
There are four background stitches left. I Love it (pun intended) and that the Philadelphia Phillies won their season opener!

my mum and I have stitched two of these pieces as our first introduction to canvas work over 25 years ago.
if I find the patterns I will try and bring them to seminar with me.
