If you're still looking for something to stitch for Valentine's Day, this little design is only 53w x 53h. It was fun to design... I wanted to make the border look like a postage stamp to match the theme...
The Sent With Love Teddy Bear is similar to Beary Loved... both of them are new for Valentine's Day 2026. I hope you enjoy stitching them!

If you're still snowed in, or just staying indoors because it's SO COLD outside, like I am, it's a great time to work on some cross stitch!
❄️ We have snow forecasted for this weekend… a lot... but hopefully by the time it gets here the numbers will lessen. I enjoy snow, but not so much at one time...right now, they're predicting around 7-11 inches.🌷
The Gathered From the Garden: Wanda’s Garden Path cross stitch pattern is a little reminder that springtime is coming, even though it seems so far away right now... 🌿
I know that there are a lot of people that truly enjoy the snow, and to those who do, I am wishing a beautiful, fun-filled weekend! To the rest of us, I'm wishing warm homes, hot coffee/cocoa, and lots of stitching...
Also, keep an eye out for 2 accompanying patterns that will be released in Summer 2026... Watermelon and The Garden Perch!
Valentine's Day is just a month away... and this cuddly little teddy bear is ready for stitching! She's bundled up in a pink sweater with a heart on it, and the design has the words "Beary Loved", as a play on the phrase "Very Loved".
If you don't have a Valentine's Day stitch yet, you have plenty of time to stitch the Beary Loved cross stitch pattern before next month!
We're getting ready for Christmas today... the decorations are going up outside and they're going to look pretty! I love Christmas lights outside. We don't have a lot that we put up, but they are out where I can see them when I'm working, so I love it!
Speaking of Christmas... The December Cat is out today, and is ready for Christmas. This month's cat sits sweetly by a Christmas tree with snow-kissed branches. There are golden snowflakes, stars, and hearts... Be sure to check out all of the Cat Tales Collection designs. There are a few Christmas ones out already... the A Cat and Cardinal Christmas and Cat with Holly and Ornaments. And there may be more by the time you read this!
I hope you have a beautiful and blessed Christmas season... Christy
If you're looking for a design to stitch for the 250th Anniversary of the USA, you might enjoy stitching the Patriotic Liberty House. This design was released a few months ago. It was my first design using Weeks Dye Works floss, which is absolutely beautiful! I really love the color variety of floss they have.
So if you're doing some patriotic stitching, or joining in on a patriotic SAL and need a design to stitch for it, give this one a consideration! There are also other patriotic options at Happiness Is HeartMade... some larger designs, some smaller designs... you can check them out here... Patriotic Patterns at Happiness Is HeartMade.
If you're still looking for something to stitch for Valentine's Day, this little design is only 53w x 53h. It was fun to design......
