7X7 Splicing, The Heart

[marujo.sortudo]

So, I'm practicing my 7X7 splicing using 3/8" 302/304 SS. Everything's going pretty well, but the burying of the heart is causing me the most difficulty. I find that unlaying the heart as Brion suggests before burying it causes nothing but chaos for me with all the strands fighting each other. Any tips or techniques to share to deal with this bit?
