Mini Bead Embroidery Kit on Art Canvas "Heart"

“Heart” is a large red heart worked so that a coiled rose appears inside it.

What the picture shows

The heart shape fills almost the entire circle and is beaded solidly — a rare thing in this series, where the beads usually cover only part of the design. There are just three colours: bright red, dark cherry and a warm golden red that catches the light. The darker beads spiral outward from the centre and read as the furled petals of a rose, with the lighter ones laid between them. A dark line outlines the heart, so the silhouette stays crisp. The pale pink damask background is left unbeaded — deliberately quiet, so it does not argue with the red. The two halves of the heart mirror each other, but the spiral inside is shifted to the left, so the shape never looks mechanical. The beads lie in arcs, and in the light the rows give a clear shine. This is the simplest chart in the series: with three colours there is almost nothing to confuse.
