Heart Envelope Bag


Thinking about that special someone? How about making this cute little heart envelope bag and hiding a special little surprise inside.

A quick sewing project that can be reused over and over and will always remind that person how much you mean to them. So let's get started.

You will need:
Printed Pattern Pieces
2 fat eighths
Button
10" piece of ribbon or trim
Thread


Print and cut out all pattern pieces. 
Pin fat eights with right sides together and cut out pattern pieces. You will have one interior fabric and one exterior fabric of each of the pattern pieces. 


Pin pieces right side together making sure to mark opening for turning. 


Sew around edge of each piece 1/4" leaving a small opening for turning.


Clip all around your three pieces to remove some of the bulk in the curves. 


Turn all three piece right side out and press flat.


Top stitch the bottom edge of the top piece.


Top stitch the top edge of the bottom piece.


Pin the top and bottom piece to the back piece. 


Top stitch 1/8" all around edge. This will keep both pieces together and close your turning holes. 


Attach button and ribbon closures to keep contents secure. 


You can fill your bag with chocolates or candy to give as a gift. 

I hope that you enjoy making these. I can't wait to make a bunch to give out on Valentine's Day!
