Ideas come at the funniest time – whilst eating breakfast yesterday morning I suddenly realised I needed to embroider a Valentine’s heart in seed beads.
Fortunately I have plenty of fabric, beads and embroidery hoops to hand so within a few hours all was finished. The inclusion of embroidered initials within the heart would make for a lovely wedding gift or alternative shapes could be used for different occasions, a rattle for a new baby or a rabbit for Easter.
I have used size 11 seed beads for this example but it would be very easy to substitute French knots or seed stitches to give a similar effect.
If you would like to have a go please click below to see how I made my little heart – it would be fantastic to see your creations!
This is beautiful .

I love this, especially the fact that the beads surround the heart so you could embroider names in it.
