[ENG-SPA] Cactus heart🌵❤/Cactus corazón🌵❤

Helloooooo beautiful people of #hive especially to the #NeedleWorkMonday community, happy start of the week, I hope you are feeling well today. I am very happy because I am going to teach you how to make this beautiful heart-shaped cactus. Its process is not so simple, but I designed it especially for you because the day of "love and friendship" is approaching. And since you always have a friend who loves cactus, I think this is a perfect gift, plus it is a long-lasting plant that doesn't need watering. So it is perfect. I hope you like to see the step by step:
