These Make Wonderful Gifts for Any Occasion!
Pieced hearts dress up pretty patchwork bags, making them charming gifts for any occasion. They’re also great for scraps and look wonderful in any color combination.
Plus, they’re simple to make and have no exposed seams.
Bags of this size are useful for so many things. Fill them with sewing tools and supplies, take-along projects, makeup, jewelry, small kids’ toys, and more.

A second pattern is provided by the designer for substituting an initial for the pieced heart.
The letter templates are sized to fit within a 4″ square, replacing the heart (and for use in other projects). Attach them with fusible applique.

PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest has featured many patterns from vendors participating in the Craftsy Marketplace, most of which have been deleted by Craftsy. It's going to take awhile for us to hunt down new sources for those patterns. In the meantime there are many links to patterns on our site that no longer work. We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you! PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest does not sell or otherwise provide patterns directly. We showcase patterns and projects from various vendors, bloggers and other sources. Please make a note of where you access a pattern (the link in the yellow box toward the end of each Quilting Digest article). That way you can contact Support for that source if you have downloading problems or other issues. Thank you!
