Everyone love a little love sometimes, so what about a little heart? These little hearts are so heart-wrenchingly cute, you’ll have to make more than one!
In 2019, I designed My Bunny Valentine, a sweet little Valentine’s Bunny with her own heart dress, backpack, sidebag and pillow! For easy access, I’ve decided to share her heart accessories as their own pattern (though you may have to make a Bunny Valentine as well after you catch a glimpse of her below!)
