We made little sacks out of burlap, tied at the top with red ribbon. The sacks are made from some burlap scraps I had - sewn together with a simple red zigzag stitch. They were very very easy and quick to make.
On each little sack is an appliqued red cotton heart.
On the label it says 'You are my sunshine'.
Can you guess what is inside?
SUNFLOWER SEEDS! What kid doesn't like watching a giant sunflower grow?
I had thought about making heart shaped seed bombs
- but I was so worried about doing them wrong and harming the seeds - I
didn't want to send out anything that wouldn't grow! I think we will
experiment with seed bombs this summer.
