🧵 Patchwork Heart Appliqués - PDF Sewing Pattern
Three sizes - quilted patchwork hearts made from scraps - beginner friendly - instant PDF download
Small pieced hearts, quilted through, with a neat turned edge all round. Three sizes in one pattern, so you can use them as ornaments, as appliqués on a bag or a cushion, as bowl fillers, or as the little handmade thing you give away.
They are made the way a scrap quilt is made: a few different prints joined by straight seams, cut into a heart, backed, turned and quilted by hand with big stitches. Nothing is glued, nothing is fused. That is why they stay soft and why they look like they came off an old quilt.
