Supplies
Large clear zip lock bags
colored paper (something with give like washi paper, card stock doesn't work well)
Candy
thread (color of your choice)
scissors
Directions
1. Using the colored paper, cut out a heart. I recommend nothing smaller that 5" by 5".
2. Cut out a piece of the zip lock bag that will cover the heart and over lap some.
3. Machine sew the paper and zip lock together around the edge of the heart leaving a space to put the candy in. Trim the zip lock so its the same shape as the paper heart after sewing.
4. Place the candy in the bottom of heart.
5. Machine sew two separate lines to form the maze (refer to the picture).
*Make sure the maze is wide so the candy can be pushed through.

I've been logging in for a while now and check in daily. This little maze totally got me going and I made a whole bunch of cards sewn on my machine today.
