this is a laser cut kit with the Garden Party pattern but different fabric than the original. It’s a bit pricey but considering all those small pieces might be worth it.

I really appreciate you taking the time to look, but yeah. I knew about that Yippee style and I really don’t like it. It’s so busy it takes away from the look I’d like to have. Lots of spots everywhere. lol. Sorry about that, but thanks.

I quite like this quilt (the orignial by Laura Heine) for a small throw rug. If you don't have a heart punch how would you make those tiny hearts? They seem to be less than 6mm (1/4 inch) each
You couldn't even sew them on by hand could you? Would they be embroidery?
There is no information on the pattern site.

Oh I am such a dummy. I've found a facebook thing and the quilt is 66 x 88 inches (not metric) so the hearts are much bigger. I think about 3/4 of an inch (1.8mm) each heart.

This video suggests you can sew areound each heart or use seem a steam and then close quilt over the whole thing so you don't have to go around each piece. She says it's permanent bond so will srvive washing.

What I didn’t like about the pattern is hearts are hand drawn on and all look different size. The punch will allow me to get them all uniform. 400 with a punch is not that much.

So each block has 36 hearts and 8 circles on it, for a total of 432 and 96 respectively. Still looking for a circle punch.

Hi Ashley. Not sure yet if I need to draw on the reverse side. I need 8yrds of 24in wide Steam A Seam and based on how it’s packaged that’s an awkward amount. I’m a frugal cutter and to me 8yrds sounds like way too much and why 24in wide. I’ll have to research more because I hate waste!

this is the tutorial that helped my friend understand how to handle the long piece of steam a seam and placing your fabric chunks on it
