My family tree - I drew this and this became the result with the help of two embroidery friends -

on top is my name and the name of my dead husband
then my children names and the leaves tell how many people are in each family
and the bottom says Good Memories

A very elegant and lovely pillow! I like the stitch pattern you did on the tree. It doesn't overwhelm the delicate leaves! And the heart is such a tender touch. Well done!

How very elegant. This would also make a nice gift for a wedding. I teach Family History classes and I always love embroidering a tree on a bag for my class members. It is always such a big hit at the end.
Your's is really special.
