Another pocket square for Patrick.

This time I used a white, raw silk that was leftover from a college project. The heart is a special organ to me because I have a defective one, which was entirely fixed in 2010, works perfectly, is part bovine. The image was hand-drawn directly onto the fabric as was the text, directly written, in pencil. I used an embroidery stitch my mom taught to me fifteen years ago—knowledge that’s gone unused since—and multiple colors to indicate the various chambers and valves of the heart.

The seams are hand-rolled, to his liking, and cut to a standard pocket-square size. I think this will be a nice accessory for his gray suit jacket.
