The first block I made wasn't correctly done - see the frown?

It would be fun to make a pillow cover and have one frowning heart and one happy heart - could be a secret signal for the marriage bed!

The directions say to use any color for the strings, but if I make any more I'll only use medium and light fabric.  Since the background is dark, dark colors there needs to be more contrast.
