  Step 1

  Draw a heart and put a dot in the centre but a little bit closer to the top than the bottom. You can draw the lines so you get even segments of the stitches if you want.

• 

  Step 2

  Bring the needle up at the point of the heart, then push it down at the centre dot while you hold onto the thread so you don’t pull it to the back.

  (I find easier to start from the point of the heart and work my way around, so I'm starting with the heart upside down.)

• 

  Step 3

  Bring the needle up along the outline of the heart, inside the loop of the thread you’re holding. Pull the thread tight.

• 

  Step 4

  Then, again holding on to the thread, insert the needle through the centre dot.

• 

  Step 5

  Bring the needle up along the outline as in step 3 and carry on in the same way until you reach the point where you started stitching the heart.

• 

  Step 6

  The last spoke of the heart should line up with the spot where you started the heart. Secure the last spoke with a tiny straight stitch.
