Red Heart Mini Sampler - A Valentine Freebie

Happy Tuesday, ya'll . I am flip flopping between winter and Valentine's stitching. Yesterday I whipped up this Red Heart Mini Sampler which would look darling in a dough bowl or tiered tray. 

It is a small  with a design size of 60x 43 which on 14 count aida would bring it to about 4 1/4" x 3 1/8".  I used DMC 815. 


If you are interested in stitching Red Heart Mini Sampler  ,grab the images below. Many of ya'll know but I always encourage you to read my little disclaimer and note about getting my charts. 

NOTE: Normally I have been able to create links to the charts and instructions which were in JPG form. For some reason, recent updates on Google Docs. has prevented me from doing that and I am not able to create a pdf without having to deal with storage issues.  Many dear stitchers say they right click, save the image and then print.  I think some have copied and pasted it to a Word document that they can print off as well. I hope you are able to find a way to enjoy this chart. You will have to click each page to save. Thank you so much for your patience and understanding and for all of the helpful tips and ideas. 

I stitch my little designs for fun and to decorate my home. I feel very blessed by this community and love sharing my little charts, but I am not a professional designer. And I do not have professional software. Thank you for understanding . I am always grateful for your kind encouragement , your visits, and for stitching my little designs.



Well it is a short and sweet visit.  Have a beautiful day , my friends and...

As Always...

Happy quilting and stitching, ya'll

  4. I enjoy reading this little window into your and Mr. Pinker’s home. Love your “cluttered” decorating and all your designs, too. I like a home that looks ‘lived in’. I wouldn’t want to live in some of those sterile rooms that are so popular with some people. I stitched your Christmas Eve Saltbox and mounted it on a cute green tree HobLob. Now I’m stitching your Winter Saltbox now to change out for winter. I added a snazzy little blue scarf around the snowman’s neck. I’m trying to decide what my next stitch will be! I need some cute Valentines minis to pair with my Valentines tiered tray! Thanks for your sweet designs! Debbie B

    1. Aaah you are the sweetest, Debbie . Thank you so much. Lol my home is definitely lived in. I am a collector and love anything that reminds me of my grandparents. I am so honored that you sittched my Christmas Eve Saltbox. It sounds amazing and I bet the snowman looks quite dapper in the Winter Saltbox. Gosh, Valentines will be here in no time. Won't it? Lol. Happy stitching.

    1. I just got back into cross stitching a few years ago and now it has become an obsession much like my quilting. Lol , Diann, I am so honored that I could enable you into picking up the stitching again. I hope you enjoy this little stitch.

    1. Aaah thank you so much, dear. I thought it would look cute out all year as well. I had thought about putting it a small frame and hanging it on the wall, but opted for the pillow. I do like the teeny samplers . Have a very lovely week .
