This is a darling item to make and gift during the love month of February. This will serve double duty though with all of the treats have been consumed. It could serve as a change purse or small make up bag. I love little projects like this can can serve multiple functions.

I love, love this for a lot of reasons. I have an extreme sweet tooth and this would be the perfect pouch to carry my church candy. Right now I am using a plastic zip lock bag. That is not really pretty. This is pretty and just big enough for my butter scotch and spearmint disks. Thanks for sharing.

This is so cute! Since this is a commercial pattern, I went to the Yarnspirations site to see if there was a download available. There is, and it can be found here http//www.yarnspirations.com/patterns/heart-shaped == -candy-bag.html?id=193225 Its available in both French and English (dont worry, this version uses US terms). I would challenge this being an Easy project though. Any time you need to set a zipper ups the difficulty considerably.

Oh! So cute!
