This is a good little project for kids and adults alike. They take minimal sewing and embroidery skills. They are so fun to make and would be nice gifts. :) Did I mention they are nearly free?
Total Time: approximately 25 minutes
Source: Pinterest inspired
Supplies:
- small amounts felt
- embroidery floss
- scissors
- needle
- template
Steps:
- Here is an outline of a heart; perhaps you can print this.
- Cut 2 hearts from the corner of the felt.
- See?
- Thread a length of floss, knotting the end to secure it inside your work.
- Put your hearts together. Begin making simple running stitches very close to the edge of your hearts. Be sure you are going through both layers.
- See?
- Now using the same thread, make a French knot and daisy stitches for a flower.
- You could also embroider "I love you" or "#1 Teacher", the possibilities are endless.
- Make a simple overhand knot close to your work a few times and hide your trimmed end on the inside of your bookmark. Enjoy!

These are so cute! I think I would sew the design on one heart and then sew them together. Can't wait to try one!
