A friend of mine on Craftster asked me to do a personal swap with her. She had joined a Christmas Stocking swap and her partner wanted either an embroidered pig or a heart with her and her boyfriend's initials. I agreed so this is what happens when you give me free license with a concept.
A Flying pig pulling an initialed heart! Both hoops are crayon tinted. The clouds are appliqued bits of felt and the cord is a length of embroider thread that I secured on the underside if the pig, braided to a good length and then secured on the heart hoop.
In return for my embroidery, I received the softest crocheted afghan that is going to be part of my mom's holiday gift. I think we did each other proud. :D
