Secret Stitching Sweetheart Blog Hop

I'm participating in the fun Secret Stitching Sweetheart Blog Hop. If you don't know what I'm talking about let's see if I can explain it. A blog hop is a fun blog event. Jo is a wonderful host of several blog hops throughout the year. This one is in honor of Valentine's Day. If interested we sent Jo a picture of anything we feel fits the theme love. She emails the pictures to a random participant. On Valentine's Day Jo will post a link to all the blogs that joined in. You hop through the list and find your picture. It's a great excuse to visit other blogs and maybe even find a new one to follow. Can't wait to see who all joined in.

So here is the link for Jo's blog...

Here is the beautiful photo I received to share...

I really look forward to the owner stepping forward and telling us the story behind it.

Have a fantastic Valentine's Day and great weekend ahead. We have a lazy weekend so hopefully that means lots of stitching time too.

Hi Katie! It's me...I'm your secret Valentine. I'm glad you liked it. There is a very sentimental story that goes with it on our blog from last Valentine's Day. It's kind of long to post here but if you are really interested you can find it at the bottom of this page

It's a music box and it plays my husband's favorite song. I set it out with his grandfather's pocket watch because the song is "As Time Goes By" from Cassablanca.

Hope you have a wonderful Valentine's Day with your family. RJ
