Attack 'em with love.

The first time someone gave me one of these "heart attacks," I hardly knew what hit me. I came out onto my front porch and there were hearts strung everywhere. The perpetrators later let me know that I had been given a heart attack, and I was totally smitten. Give one to someone you love.

Description

The first time someone gave me one of these "heart attacks," I hardly knew what hit me. I came out onto my front porch and there were hearts strung everywhere. The perpetrators later let me know that I had been given a heart attack, and I was totally smitten. Give one to someone you love.

Instructions

    Start by cutting out hearts of all sizes from cardstock. Mine ranged from two inches wide to about four inches wide.

  2. Small screen shot 2012 11 18 at 9.46.55 pm

    Sew your hearts together using a sewing machine. I used a wide zigzag stitch. Feed one heart through the machine. After the heart is sewn, let about ten "blank" stitches go by, then feed the next heart through.

    Untangle your hearts and hang them up as a surprise for someone you love!
