There's something so uplifting about the Beatles "All You Need Is Love". Reading about the song online, the Beatles said this song: "cannot be misinterpreted. It is a clear message saying that love is everything". With this in mind, I was inspired to stitch a section of the song.
There's nothing you can do that can't be done.
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung.
Nothing you can say, but you can learn
How to play the game
It's easy.
Nothing you can make that can't be made.
No one you can save that can't be saved.
Nothing you can do, but you can learn
How to be you in time
It's easy.
All you need is love
All you need is love, love. Love is all you need.
Love it or hate it, you can't get away from Valentine's Day. But love is about more than a few overpriced roses and a shiny card...
There are so many forms of love. Whether it's for a child, a partner, your parents, good friends and even pets. They are all equally important and we all need it in one form or another.
The focus of the linky is crafting for pleasure, basically taking some ‘me-time’ to unwind in our busy lives. It doesn’t have to be a finished project, I love seeing work in progress photos or tutorial posts too.
All crafts welcome!
This week I'm linking up with these lovely blogs:
"Happy Days" over on www.whatkatysaid.com and www.quitefranklyshesaid.com
I agree Valentines day is more than just an obsession with consumerism but showing people that you care and will be there for them unconditionally.
ReplyDeleteI'm loving the crafting project. I look forward to see what else you produce this year!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post - yes you are right, there are so many forms of love. I am single, but have my four children to fill my heart :) Kaz x
ReplyDeleteI love this, very beautiful. Look forward to seeing what your March craft is x
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I I use Valentines day as an excuse to eat good food and remember that we're a couple and not just mum and dad. I do love this song and what a lovely idea to bring it into a craft project.
ReplyDeleteI still think that you should share the message of love with someone every day rather than just one day per year, but the lyrics of this are so true.
ReplyDeleteWe don't celebrate valentine's day at all which is a shame because it would be a good excuse to actually have a bit of romance and show each other we care. But I hate the commercialism of it.

That is really pretty although not sure my sewing habits are good enough
ReplyDeleteThat's a really lovely design. I love the background fabric, and the font is really cute. That song makes me think of Love Actually x
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely! I'm also making more of an effort to devote time to crafting - it's good for the soul! Your embroidery looks lovely!
ReplyDeleteI am actually sat singing the song now ha and what a pretty piece you have made
ReplyDeleteI love the pattern behind the words, what lovely fabric and I love the sentiment of the words x
ReplyDeleteI'm humming that song now! This is a really beautiful piece, I love crafting - I can't sew though! Thanks for linking up to #HappyDaysLinky x
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely crafts project and lovely Beatles song, love is all you need.
ReplyDeleteGot the song in my head now :-) We don't make a huge fuss about Valentine's day but we do have a nice meal just the two of us which is so important as a couple isn't it? Thank you for joining in #HappyDaysLinky x
