I did it! I finished my very first needleroll today. It really was a lot easier than I thought it would be, and I know I'll be making more. If you've already stitched this design you may notice that the heart charm is not the stated cabouchon one, but a faceted heart. I didn't realise that I had the wrong type until I went to stitch it on. Nevertheless, I don't think it looks too bad. I've now kitted up LHN's Season of Hope to start tomorrow as a break from Garden Pleasures which I'm finding a tad hard going on the 32ct Permin linen. Seaon of Hope is going to be stitched on 28ct Jobelan.

Congratulations Nicola. It's stunning. I love the heart you have on it.
Nicola you did a beautiful job and I really love the charm you used... it adds charm! LOL bad pun I know!
Oh, that's beautiful Nicola! I think the heart you used looks really pretty and shows off your stitching so well. Congratulations on your very first needleroll.

Round of applause to you!
It looks fantastic Nicola - I like the design very much - you are certainly on a roll now! (I know - dreadful pun, but I couldn't resist).
Congratulations on the first finish of the needleroll ! It turned out so sweet and dainty.
Gorgeous stitching and finishing, I would've never guessed it was your first!
This is just beautiful! It will be an heirloom for sure!

It is gorgeous Nicola! The heart is perfect:)
I think that is just stunning and the swarovski heart really sets it off even if it is supposedly the wrong type.
I hope my first attempt will match up to that.
Congratulations!!
It's a glorious finish.
What a beautiful needleroll Nicola. I just love it. You wanted to know what needleroll I had on my blog. It is called Blues Needleroll a freebie by Kristine Herber and can be found here
