Fabric Craft Project and Fabric Sale

I have always loved making Valentines for friends, and so I've been on the lookout lately for ideas. Here are some of my favorites:

From The Purl Bee Molly has directions for absolutely adorable sewn fabric Valentines. I also like what she has to say about them. She writes "I'm conflicted about Valentines Day. I'm all for the sentiment behind it but I feel a little weird about the commercialism and pressure it involves. With that said I love making valentines because they are the opposite of this. Hand-made valentines are not mass produced and they involve no pressure: If one doesn't turn out to my liking I can just throw it away."

From The Long Thread there is this idea to use a yarn heart Valentines Day card. I like the little buttons, and could see using other notions on a card. Like maybe a small colored measuring tape?

From Burda Style is this fabric card that is more a quilt style. I like how she takes the freedom to play around with different angles and dimensions.

And now, here are the fabrics that will be 20% off for the next week. Just call in and mention the blog to get the discount. Featured fabrics from the left to
