This pretty heart-shaped pattern designed by Deborah A. Dick of Tempting Tangles, combines a variety of Quaker style motifs with a cord-like border. It is stitched in a single color of you choice. The designer worked the piece (pictured) on Zweigart Linen, 40 ct Days Gone By, over 2 threads of linen with 1 strand floss, using Crescent Colours Razzleberry.
It is worked in full cross stitch, plus straight & back stitch. It can be stitched either over two threads or over a single thread of fabric.

Creative Poppy tip:
Turn this project into a wedding or anniversary gift by replacing the words "Cheerful Up" with 2 pairs of initials and the date of the wedding.
As a wedding gift, instead of red, you could stitch the design with white floss on a natural linen background.
