Learn how to sew cute patchwork hearts using 2.5″ fabric squares – it’s such a fun way to add a pop of love to your quilting projects! These adorable hearts can be used for sweatshirts, pillows, tote bags, or any project that needs a handmade touch. For a balanced look, mix light, medium, and dark fabrics in your patchwork heart. You can either turn under the raw edges for a neat finish or leave them as raw-edge applique, allowing for a naturally frayed effect over time. You can use an iron-on adhesive to fuse the heart block to your sweatshirt or tote bag. This fun project is a creative way to use up fabric scraps and spread a little extra joy!
