Valentine Sucker Tutorial

First, collect your supplies:

(everything can be found at Michaels, of course!)

~cut 2 heart shapes out of felt
~embroidery floss
~oversized needle (these work better than regular handsewing needles)
~wooden stick
~polyester filling
~hot glue gun
~Valentine ribbon
~plastic sucker bag (optional)

Beginning close to the point of the heart, blanket stitch the two hearts together. (Leave a gap at the point that is large enough to place the wooden stick in)

Leave yourself enough room (about 1") to stuff polyester filling inside the heart.

Using your hot glue gun, glue a small amount of glue on the end of the wooden stick.

Place stick 1/2" inside the heart, making sure you do not glue the "points" of the hearts.

Finish stitching around the heart. (When stitching the point, you will stitch one side of the heart at a time)

As shown in the Cookie Tutorial, work the needle back and forth a few times to hide the leftover thread.
