Step 1: Draw out half of a heart on 1 piece of the red felt. I drew dots to cut along the dotted line.

Step 2: Fold the same piece of felt in half and cut along the dotted lines. This will ensure both sides of the clutch are the same.

Step 3: Traced the finished heart over the second piece of red felt. After tracing, cut the second piece of red felt so that you have two matching pieces to sew together.

Step 4: Thread the yarn through the needle to begin sewing. I used a size 18 needle. You may have to use a larger or thinner needle depending on the size of the thread/yarn you decide to use. Sew all the way around the bottom of the heart pieces leaving the top open.

Step 6: Attaching the button and loop: SSew through the back of the heart and create a loop. This will be the piece that wraps around the button to close clutch.
