I really wanted to use a pretty blue fabric for the backing but couldn't find anything suitable locally. I did find a couple of pieces online but I decided against buying anything as the chances were it would be the wrong shade of blue when it turned up so instead I played safe and backed it with the cream Belfast adding my initials and date.
Next months challenge will be one of three complimentary designs by Blue Ribbon Designs. I've wanted to do all three so don't really mind which one will be voted for in the poll, they are all lovely! :o)

Beautiful, well done on the ribbon finish, it looks wonderful
Very pretty color and the finishing is just awesome.
Carol, your stitching and finishing are absolutely gorgeous (as always). I just love the floss colour and your blue ribbon finishing. :)
As always your finish is amazing...I love the colours, all the blues compliment each other perfectly.
Gorgeous finish Carol, it's stunning.

Beautiful finish Carol. How strange that we both decided on this type of finish!
Gorgeous piece Carol, such pretty colours.
The ruched ribbon looks really nice. I love the pretty, almost flowery texture it adds to the edges.

Very pretty. I love the gathered ribbon. Great colour too.
Another treat for the eyes and a great shaped heart, you do have a wonderful talent and your obvious perfectionist streak ;-) pays off time and time again :-))
Enjoy your weekend!
