Heart CroMander

The little CroMander balls have been one of my most popular posts.
For that reason, I've decided to share another one with you all.
As with the previous one, the idea and the pattern are quite simple. But it is quite versatile and it can be embellished quite a bit according to your personal taste and the use you will be making of it.
Here's the pattern for the heart:
Beginning row: With a worsted weight variegated yarn or cotton thread and F crochet hook,
ch 3, 1 sc in 3rd ch from hook.
Row 2- ch1 and 1 sc in first sc, 2 sc in next sc. Ch 1, turn.
Row 3-1 sc in same space as ch1, 1 sc in next 2 sc and 2 sc in last sc. Ch 1, turn.
Row 4-1 sc in same space as ch 1, 1 sc in next 4 sc, 2 sc in last sc. Ch 1, turn.
Row 5-1 sc in same sp as ch 1, 1 sc in each of next 6 sc, 2 sc in last sc. Ch 1, turn.

Row 9-1 sc in each sc across.
Row 11- First side:
Row 1- 1 sc in 7 sc after ch 1. Turn, don't turn ch 1 at end of row, simply turn the piece around.
Row 2-In sert hook in second sc from the loop in the hook and draw another loop, pass yarn through both loops on hook. 1 sc in next 6 sc. Turn.
Row 3-Ch 1, 1 sc in next 4 sc, 1 dec sc in next sc. Turn.
Row 4- Ch 1, 1 dec sc at beg of row and then 1 sc across.
Row 5- 1 sc across. Fasten off. Rep on the other side, reversing direction.
Repeat with the back of the heart. Fasten off.
With both front sides facing each other and back side facing you, slip stitch all around to join, leaving a small hole to stuff with Fiberfill.
Once stuffed, close hole.
Make blossoms as follows:
With petal color of your choice: Ch 5, slip sti to close. Ch 3, slip st and then make 2 dc in round, ch 3, slip st, 2 dc, ch3, slip st, rep around until you have 4 petals. Fasten off.
Sew blossons to heart randomly or following any design you like.
