A Little Sewing Makes The Heart Happy
Wanted to share a little craft you can make and give throughout the year!
This craft is super easy and inexpensive.
Using up little scraps of fabric is a great way to be frugal.
I like making these so they are available so
I can tuck them into any packages to my friends or family!
A little added bonus that they can remember me by.
Plus they look so cute, and you can hang them anywhere!
All you need is
A heart shape pattern you cut out
Scraps of fabric, or you can buy what you really like
Scissors
Fiberfill for the stuffing
Ribbon or lace for hanger
Little ribbon flowers or buttons
Glue for adding flowers or buttons
I did sew mine on my sewing machine,
But you could sew it also by hand!
You could also make these out of felt material,
And you would do a stitching by hand around it.
So cut out your pattern
Pin the pattern onto the material
Cut heart out.
Sew both pieces right side out, but leave a little gap to add your stuffing!
(Don't fill it really full)
Sew up the little gap
Now hand sew on your lace hanger or ribbon
Glue on a button or flower.
Ta Da
You now have a heart to keep or give away!
Keeping a small project to work on can help you stay creative;
And keeps your hands busy!
I like to pray while working on these kinds of projects,
They can inspire you and keeps you calm.
I have always loved seeing pictures of a homemaker sitting
In a chair and working on a sewing project.
Find peace and joy in the small things!
Blessings, Roxy
~Let me know if you try this sweet little craft sometime~
I love the pretty fabric hearts you made Roxy. Thanks for sharing how to make them.
ReplyDeleteThose are so cute Roxy! I have a ton of fabric scraps. I'm going to make these. Thank you Roxy💟
ReplyDeleteYour little hearts are so cute and sweet. My fabric is all buried somewhere in the storage unit but I have made lots of felt ones with embroidery over the years and given them away. Some little project is always being worked on here. :-). I hope you have a wonderful day in the Lord my friend.

These are so cute Roxy I love the beautiful fabric you make them out of... it looks as if it’s saying “I love you” in the sweetest way.
ReplyDeleteI’ve made some but I usually fill mine with lavender. My machines are out at the moment because started two summer dresses, not finished yet as I jumped onto the mending! It can be never ending.
Thanks for Sharing, God bless and keep you safe, and all those you love, hugs Shaz in Oz.x
