How to Make Felt Valentine Hearts - Tutorial & Templates

Valentine's Day on 14th February - time to make Felt Valentine Hearts!

They can be hung on a door handle or placed in a wardrobe....for a delightful waft of lavender amongst your clothes...! 

What a lovely Valentine gift for you to make! 
Here is the tutorial - with printable heart templates...

You will need... ðŸ’—💗💗

Felt (you will need approx 2 x A4 sizes of main colour and scraps of contrasting colour)

Embroidery thread

Button

Ribbon or cord to make hanging loop

Stuffing - we used Polyester Fibre Toy Stuffing

Lavender Oil (or any perfumed oil) Optional

To Make... ðŸ’—💗💗

Print out the template... Here are the Heart Templates

Cut out two of the large hearts and one each of the smaller hearts.

Attach the two small hearts with a button on top, onto one large felt heart.

Attach your looped ribbon to the top of the other large felt heart.

Stitch the two large hearts together - use either blanket stitch or just a running loop stitch, leaving a gap to insert your stuffing (with, if desired, a few drops of perfumed oil)

Stitch up the gap and you're done! 💗💗💗

These felt hearts are easy to make and are not only for Valentines Day - 
they really are Anytime Hearts!
