You Will Need (7 things)

  • Red and white Felt
  • Cotton Wool
  • Fabric Pen
  • Thread
  • Needle
  • Scissors
  • 1 Safety Pins

Steps (3 steps, 20 minutes)

  1. 1

    Start by cutting out two heart shapes out of the red felt.

    Cut out of the white felt a rectangular shape with at one end a half circle. Make a little cut in this half circle. Write your (lover's/ pet's/..) name on it, perhaps first with a pencil, then with a marker.

  2. 2

    Put the cotton wool between the two layers heart-shaped felt - or you can first stitch the sides of the heart and then stuff it (most probably more logical).

  3. 3

    Now it is time to stitch the sides. I like it best when you make a loop and then put your needle through it. Stitch the little flap of the half circle between the two layers red felt. You only need a few stitches to secure the white felt to the heart.

    Pierce a safety pin in the back layer or attache a bobby pin to it.

    Voilà!
