Roses always inspire me. A pretty heart of white roses is timeless and elegant. Sometimes less is more. This design is at home in traditional, romantic or rustic interiors. Stitch it on cottage rose linen (featured here) or any of the suggestions I provide below.  It was inspired by vintage French linens.
