SUP Report post Posted February 14 (edited) Made this for my husband for Valentine's Day. I did not paint it because I do not like painted leather. I lightly sprayed just the petals with a rose perfume so that when he holds it, he will get the rose fragrance. Edited February 14 by SUP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DieselTech Report post Posted February 14 Nice work! Looks great! Is that by chance taken off a Jim linnel pattern. I've been meaning to try my hand at 1 of those. Thanks. Stunning! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SUP Report post Posted February 14 @DieselTech, @MarshalWill, Thank you. I got the basic rose pattern from Etsy - Goatro - and then added the sepals, rosehip and the veins on the leaf. It is surprisingly easy to make @DieselTech. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Handstitched Report post Posted February 20 That looks great Its been a while since anyone gave me anything for Valentines Day HS Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SUP Report post Posted February 20 @Handstitched Thank you. Over the years, Valentine's day becomes somewhat routine. This year, since I learnt something new, I thought of making this - something different. Otherwise, I'm more of an April fool's gal - salt in tea. misleading signs etc. What fun!!

Handstitched Report post Posted February 29 Yeh, its become a bit too commercialised . You don't have to wait all year to give or do something special for your fave person, it can happen any time. HS Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
