    "the heart is target,
    quarry, hurt trickling hope
    in loves hunting eye"

      This speaks to me of love lost and then found again. You've proved it is possible to mend a broken heart.

      this is OUTstandingly beautiful... what does the text say, though, I can't read all of it in this shot?
      to me it seems like a 'secret trousseau' item... an heirloom made by a bride going into her wedding, but for her eyes only b/c it expresses grief or reserve.

      Thanks for the comments and faves.
      This one is rather sad in feeling, about the end of a marriage, long ago, so i'm pleased the sorrow came through.

      Nothing better than stitching to mend a heart... the blueish colour somehow enhances the anatomical feel about it... ventricles...

      maybe there should be trousseaus for the ends of marriages, too?
