How to sew my fabric heart

This pattern measures x CM. Would you like to sew the same one? Good news: you can download this pattern free of charge in PDF format.

Material:

The steps to make it

Cut 2 x the heart shape from the fabric and 1 x from the wadding.

Place the 2 fabrics right sides together on the wadding and sew around the edge, 1cm from the edge. Be sure to leave a 15cm opening so you can turn the fabric inside out.

Turn your heart over, taking 1 layer of fabric on one side, and the fabric with the wadding on the other. Of course, the wadding must be on the inside. Iron (not too hot for the wadding) and close the opening with an invisible stitch.

Use your embroidery thread to make a scalloped stitch around the edge. You can also add piping or a pretty bias... The choices are endless, but plan ahead ;-)
