Cupid's Arrow...

Love looks not with the eyes...

but
with the mind;
&
therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.
~William Shakespeare ~
(from A Midsummer Night's Dream, 1594)


With this verse in mind, I chose to keep cupid simple & without face. Love isn't really about what's on the outside, rather from within...

"Cupid's Arrow" pattern coming soon! Pattern will include the red cross stitch cloth. The 7" cherub is tied to a bundle of old books. It's wings and folded heart garland are made from pages from within the old books.

Have a good week,
Brenda
