If you need to catch up on this project, here’s part one and part two
I’ve been making candy sweethearts out of felt – hey, they’re calorie free that way! To finish the project, lay the heart on a sheet of the same colored felt, but don’t cut it out quite yet. Using a straight stitch, sew around the edges (I used a 1/8″ seam allowance). Okay, now you can cut them out! Sewing them on a larger sheet of felt makes it easier to prevent the felt pucking or getting pulled out of shape. Trim the loose threads.
