Hollow Heart

I have finished the pattern for ‘Hollow Heart’, the heart I shared last week. I know it’s a little late for Valentine’s Day, but it’s still February, so maybe not way too late?

I am happy with this heart. The pattern came together easily needing only a few tweaks to get it right. Now is the pattern written right? I hope so.

This is a small, easy pattern compared to the Iris bookmark. I’ve found if I save frequently while working on the pattern and stop if I start to have weird reactions – like not able to change something – to quit while I’m ahead. By saving frequently I don’t lose much and can start again later. The issue is probably with my computer, which I will have looked at as soon as possible. But I basically have to start the pattern over completely. This does not make me happy, but at least I think I can write it out without learning a new program. At least at the moment.

If you are interested in tatting this heart it is on My Patterns page as Hollow Heart.

Today it is crazy cold here with snow and wind. It’s hard to tell how much snow we actually got because it is blowing so bad, but we must have between five and seven inches. I am so blessed that we didn’t have to go anywhere today! The snow is over but the extreme cold will be here tomorrow yet. Today’s high was 2° with a wind chill of -14°, tomorrow morning is going to be much colder. My insulated coveralls are by the door, ready when I need them!

Are you suffering from the cold where you are? Or dealing with flooding? This is quite the winter we are having. Praying you all keep safe!

    1. Thanks, Grace! I hope to see how it comes out for you – whenever you get a chance!

  1. That’s a lovely little heart! Thank you for sharing your pattern. We have not had much snow this year. I’m sure it’s less than 6″ total. Last week was pretty cold, but today we will be near 60°. My sinuses do not like all this up and down!

    1. Diane, I’m sorry to hear about your issues with the weather – I get that, too! I am looking forward to warmer weather for a while, but don’t want the weather to get hot too soon!

    1. The pattern looks good on this end. Let me know if you continue to have trouble.
