Mr. Ferrars' Confession by Annie Beez Folk Art

The quote at the top "My heart is, and always will be, yours" was spoken by Mr. Edward Ferrars to Elinor Dashwood in the Jane Austen novel Sense and Sensibility, published in 1812.  If you are a fan of the novel, you can stitch it as is or you could change the year and it would make a lovely wedding or anniversary stitch with a pair of swans at the bottom and a fabulous pink and red house inscribed with Quaker-esque designs and surrounded by flowers.  Note that satin stitches are used on the floral design on each swan, but a larger inset chart is provided to help you with that.  A full DMC conversion is also provided.
