Conversation Heart Coaster Pattern

Surprise your sweetheart with a set of these sweet conversation heart coasters.  These coasters are perfect for Valentine's day or any time of the year.  Make a set with several different "sweet nothing" phrases embroidered on them.  Not feeling the love?  Change the phrases to "Bug Off" or Luv Stinks" for a sarcastic anti-Valentine's day coaster.

This pattern is made with less than 1 ounce of cotton worsted weight yarn such as Sugar'n Cream or Lion Brand kitchen cotton in pastel colors.  You will also need scraps of red yarn for the words.  I used a size g hook but you can use any similar sized hook.  To hide the ends and to embroider the words you will need a blunt tapestry needle.
