Free pattern: Stitched heart pennant banner

This little heart pennant banner is so sweet! Especially with all the hand stitches! Bev from Flamingo Toes shares a free pattern at Lil Luna for making it. It’s cute for Valentine’s Day, of course, but hearts don’t necessary have to be just for February. It’s a great scrapbusting project, too!
