Here's the fifth heart block I stitched for charity this year. This is not entirely my own design. I based it on another chart I had which was a heart with this swirl design. But the dimensions of that heart were different than the one I needed. I used the original as a template, of sorts, and filled my heart with a similar design. I decided to use DMC 115, a Garnet colored variegated floss, to fill the entire heart.

The original chart I based this design on is noted below. I found it on the Caron Collection website some time ago (2004).
