Bow added to no-sew cube finish from last year

I stitched this Bent Creek Happy Valentine and made it into a no-sew cube last June.  Gave it to Barbara, my sister, in October.  She finally had her daughter add the bow this past weekend.  Barbara doesn't think my bows are nice enough and Kathy's are absolutely beautiful.
