The pattern is for a cute, pretty and mini set of Sweetheart Halves with a couple who are holding hands and either looking at each other with love or giving each other a little kiss, whatever you want it to be. The heart halves can be fridge magnets, keyrings, or pocket hugs. Half you can keep and half you can give to someone you love whether that be a partner, child, friend or whomever may need some love, so that you both can have a little bit of each other with you always. It is very quick to make, a great stash buster and would be perfect at craft fayres as a unique gift.
