In a previous post...I shared a pattern for a patchwork heart. A fun little make, that I sized especially for my 'Happy Bag' pattern.
The Patchwork Heart uses 1 1/2" squares & finishes at 4 1/2". It's the perfect little square to add to the front of the bag. I had so much fun making these & using up squares from my jar.
Whenever I sew something, I make sure to include a stack of squares from those scraps. It is such fun to get that jar down, from the shelf from time to time. A great memory jar of all the things made in the past.
In One Afternoon, I made 2 drawstring bags with heart centers & made them opposite. Well, because opposites attract...right?
I've included the cuts here for adding to the bag dimensions. It is also on the pattern for reference.
Happy Bag - Cut Strips
Top- Cut 1 - 8 1/2" w X 1 3/4" h
