This is a traditional style Sailors Valentine that I made for my husband office.  I may enter it in the Sanibel Island , Florida Shell Show this March.  I entered for a few years and have not been able to go for several years now.

Sailors made or bought this type of Art Work while on sailing trips long ago.  The modern art pieces are amazing.Sailors Valentine

Carol -- That is beautiful!  I have seen them in gift shops in coastal areas but never knew what they were called.  Thanks for enlightening me!

I also never realized that this was something sailors did.  You've done a beautiful job on this one.  My sister likes to do frames like this on large mirrors.

It looks like it would take a long time to complete. I like the flower designs the best.
