Full Hearts

Mahogany I think, it was an unlabeled bowl blank from a random lot. Hearts were laser engraved. I found a cross stitch pattern online and recreated it in Inkscape. Finished with boiled linseed oil.
3.25" tall, 2.75" wide

What David and Russ said. Nice! Any significance to the blank spots in the hearts?

Thanks! The blank spots are just there to give it a 3d shiny illusion.

Not pictured is a heart on the other side that is bleeding. I forgot to rotate the image and it completed the first row of x's before I realized it. A reminder to always do a test first to double check everything.
