Materials:
Several sheets of wool felt, available from Bear Dance Crafts
Sewing Thread
Small amount of wool roving for stuffing (optional)
Yarn or string for hanging
Thumbtacks or tape
To make the garland as shown you will need to cut out 6 large hearts, 2 medium hearts and 2 of each of the letters.
Blanket stitch around each piece.
Measure the area you want to decorate (my doorway is 32 inches-80 cm), space your pieces evenly and then sew a thread to hang them onto your yarn or string. Your garland is now ready to hang!
If you like you can make the whole garland out of hearts, put small hearts on the big hearts, or even spell someones name for a personalized garland.
Happy Sewing!
Natalie
