Rebecca Ringquist, the artist behind Dropcloth Samplers, has whipped up a sweet embroidery project composed of four heart panels for you to embroider by hand. Once completed, they can be sewn up into four festive holiday ornaments and embellished with a bell. Rebecca leads you though the back stitch, running stitch, and satin stitch, but you can choose your own stitches to suit your own taste. Finish your ornament off by adding a customized message of love on the backside and then stuff them into a huggable heart or leave it flat to send to all the Valentine's in your life.
