YOU HAVE MY HEART

January 31, 2025 By Cathy Habermann 6 Comments

You Have My Heart

 

I was looking around the house, picking out pieces of ‘Habermann marriage memorabilia’ to include in this year’s Anniversary Token photograph.

I have pretty clear memories of the silver tray – it was a wedding gift (it was the 80’s…I think it was a required gift).

The card standing up in the background is a 1-year Anniversary card from my sister (a row of paper houses…she knows me well).

The 2 metal love birds…well, this resulted in a 20-minute conversation between Bill & I trying to figure out where & when that we bought them!! I do remember what happened: Bill liked them & walked out of the gift shop – no birds in hand. I went back in & bought them, wrapped them up for a Christmas gift – no easy way to get out of the obvious joke here 😉

I guess since we have reached #37 in the Anniversary timeline, we are allowed to forget a few of the lesser details!

 

Please enjoy ‘You Have My Heart’.

Something new for this year, we are offering a finishing kit for sale on the website for the heart shape. The kit includes 2 laser cut mat board hearts & step by step written finishing instructions.

A heart template is included in the chart if you wish to cut your own mat boards or finish as a sweet pillow.

I love this part of my job! We were in Ames, IA f I love this part of my job!

We were in Ames, IA for a few days (Special Olympics Summer Games on the IA State campus). On the way home, we stopped at Prairie Rose Needleworks to visit Amanda! She opened her shop a year ago & it was wonderful to see it all in person!!

- love her storefront - great parking with restaurants close by
- I took home several of those nurge hoops
- a great selection of charts and threads
- awesome embroidery kits with books on Sashiko & Kogin
- I spy binders of my designs (I couldn’t help it 🤣)
- there we are…I’m fresh off the tennis court so not loving my hairdo!

It was great to see her again after Nashville Market. Check the shop out if you’re in the area or see her website!
