Morning all!
Today I have another little felt heart project for you. This one is just adorable, being that the finished hearts are only 1.5 inches.
For these hearts you'll need to download the template which is available for download HERE
Follow along with these super easy steps to make your own! I've found this heart looks best when you use a high contrast colour for the thread.
You could also embroider small flowers into the front piece of felt prior to sewing.
You Will Need:
The template from the link above, cut out the 1.5 inch heart
A sewing needle
Some thread
A small amount of stuffing
A small amount of felt
1: Cut out 4 1.5 inch hearts from the felt.
2: Place 2 hearts together and blanket stitch around the outside edge, when you have a small opening left, be sure to push some stuffing inside (a pencil helps here) before you finish sewing.
That's it! It really only has the 2 steps! I told you it was easy. The beauty about these little hearts is they are so easy to customise with colour choice or adding on embellishments like tiny flowers or bows. How creative can you make them?
This pattern is also a great one to introduce children to hand sewing, as the hearts are small enough that they wont need a super long thread to get tangled and can be finished fast, giving them some quick gratification for a job done.
