Secret Stitching Sweetheart Blog Hop

 πŸ’•πŸ’• Happy Valentine's Day πŸ’•πŸ’•

Jo at Serendipitous Stitching is hosting Secret Stitching Sweetheart Blog Hop. Thank you Jo for hosting another super blog hop. 

It's such a lovely hop as everyone sent Jo a Valentine's photo, this could be something we've made or received. Jo sent everyone one of the photos but we don't know who's photo we have, hence the blog hopping. 

This is the beautiful Valentine's photo I received, I love they way it's personalised for the blog Hop but who is my Secret Sweetheart Stitcher.


We had planned to be in Cardiff to visit our daughter for her birthday but unfortunately she has tested positive. She is ok now and we'll meet up soon to celebrate. 

It does mean however that I can put my Valentine ornaments out as we're home. The mantle has my February Drawn Thread and my Love Birds (do you recognise the ribbon hee hee). My tree has carefully balanced boscornus and mini cushions along with hanging ornaments although I have taken one off for the photo ... I wonder why hee hee!


The candles in my Grandmother's candlestick will be lit this year as they are looking old and marked, as well as reminding my of my Grandmother it always makes me think of Beauty and the Beast. 



Hubby and I got engaged on Valentine's Day in 1986 - this was us then and us last December - what a cute pair we are πŸ₯°


I hope you've had a lovely Valentine's Day and have enjoyed the Secret Sweetheart Stitcher blogs ... I'm of for a hop around to find my photo πŸ’•

  11. Thanks for taking part in the Secret Stitching Sweeheart Blog Hop this year. Sorry you couldn't be with your daughter this year.
    I had to look twice at your sweetheart's photo to see if she had actually stitched the words in there!
    Love the photo of the two of you. Hubby and I got together just after Valentine's Day in 2006, we celebrate on the 18th Feb.
