Heart a Day 2013 - Week 3

I don't use a hoop! When you are stitching on a good quality aida cloth, it is stiff enough that you do not need a hoop, and I love free stitching like this. In fact, I love it so much, that I've decided to do something extra on this big tapestry. I'll reveal it next week!
