Valentine Rose

Valentine Rose By Terry White

Valentine Rose - Terry White

This little Valentine Rose is made from 8 hearts cut from felt. It works up quickly and would be a great project for kids as well as creative grown-ups! It can be made into a pin or attached to a gift or card.

Materials needed:
10 inch x 3 inch red felt 2 inch x 4 inch green felt 1 inch square of pink felt

8 inch x 3 inch piece of Card Stock for making the heart templates Red sewing thread and hand needle
Fabric glue

Pink and Green markers to trace the shapes onto the felt….these can be any kind of markers like Sharpies, Crayola or Prismacolor….anything that works on the felt which shows up and matches the colors of felt.

Lovely little scissors….I like Havel’s 5 inch curved scissors for cutting out the felt hearts….
….and, I like Havel’s Teflon scissors for cutting the heart templates from card stock.

Begin by tracing the heart shapes onto the card stock and cut out the hearts for templates. Trace the heart shapes onto the felt and cut them out.
