To make a garland of 12 hearts:

2 - Measure and cut 2 strips 12" x 3" (30cm x 8cm)
3 - Mark the width of your hearts on both pieces of fabric. 1" (2.5cm).
4 - Place the maked sides of the fabric together and sew a narrow seam along one long edge

6 - Cut along the marked lines.
7 - Thread a large needle with cotton (doubled) and thread through your first heart.
8 - Thread the felt balls onto the cotton, I went for a triple arrangement of white, pink. white.

Continue threading the hearts and felt balls until the garland is complete. Obviously your garland can be as long as you want.
