I added a narrow border around the outside - a leftover scrap of the pink I used as the backing and binding of Scrappy Hearts and Nine-Patches.
I alco pieced a scrappy backing for it, using the paper-pieced hearts I was playing with in February.
Today I'll be putting in some slow-stitching time as I get started on hand quilting this.
Enjoy your Sunday! Sharing at Quilting is more fun than Housework for Oh Scrap and Kathy's Quilts for Slow Sunday Stitching.

Your Crabapple Hill Stitch-along embroidery is lovely. Love all the pretty details you have stitched. Have a lovely day stitching this pretty.
This is going to be such a sweet little sampler once you get it all finished. Thanks for sharing with Oh Scrap!
It’s so cute, Diann! I do like Crabapple Hill stitchers! Haven’t done one in a while! Sorry I missed this SAL.
The pink border is just perfect!
Your embroidery is so pretty, and the border and scrappy backing is adorable. I love all those colors and stitches, and hand quilting is perfect for it.
Diann, this embroidery project is just gorgeous! I wish I had the patience to do hand sewing. What are your plans for your beautiful project?
OH your embroidery piece is sweet and the added fabric really enhanced it!
Truly lovely.
