Free Friday: Pretty Coaster

EDIT: For some reason, this didn't post on Friday when it was supposed to :(  Sorry!  So here's a little Monday extra for you.

Happy Friday, everyone!  Did you have a good week?  Mine was alright, not perfect, but I guess I should be grateful that it was at least quiet.  It snowed like crazy yesterday and it's so pretty outside, all white and fluffy.  This is probably winter's last hurrah before it melts back into spring!

Today's free pattern was actually meant for last week, so I'm sorry it's late!  It's a Valentine's coaster, pretty in pinks and purple.  It features a cool stitch I discovered in my new needlepoint book that I thought was quite pretty.  I hope you enjoy it!

 I should probably get to work on some St. Patrick's Day patterns soon, and then Easter!  Boy, how the year flies by.  I can't believe that February is already half way over.  Before you know it, it'll be Christmas again!
