Bring storybook charm to Valentine stitching with this vintage-style Cupid holding a red heart. The little cherub is full of character, with curly hair, angel wings, a bow, quiver and arrows picked out in pink, gold, light blue, green, blue and black. It suits children’s makes, love-themed gifts and romantic wedding details where you want something softer and more illustrative than a plain heart motif.
Because the design is open and lightly stitched, it sits especially well on lighter fabrics without turning stiff. It would look lovely on a child’s cardigan, a Valentine pinafore, a cotton cushion cover, a keepsake bib or the corner of a wedding handkerchief. With 12 thread colours and a generous size range, it gives you enough detail to keep Cupid’s features clear while still feeling airy and elegant.
