Cuckoo

...for THIS Hero Arts set and this weeks Embellish Color challenge.

Happy St. Valentines Days, by the way! We're celebrating with some homemade red velvet cupcakes (sooo good) and some chocolate decorations. If they turn out pretty enough, I might share pictures later. ;) Are you doing (or eating! lol!) anything special today?


Some serious paper piecing going on here....I haven't done paper piecing in a long time, so this felt so good.
And sorry for the poor photo - I'm going to retake this one (just because it annoys me), but we've had terrible lighting lately.

My hearts for the Embellish challenge on there, tiny though they may be. ;)

So, thank you for popping in and I hope you have a wonderful night!
