Simple Heart Box 

A Heart Box is made by exporting the TurtleStitch file and using an electronic paper cutter such as a Silhouette to cut out the design.   

The Heart Box can be resized by changing the scaling factor.  In the photo, the largest box's scaling factor is 1.25, the medium box is 1 and the smallest box is .75.  

This program needs to be exported as a DXF file and opened in the Silhouette software. The size of the one inch cube is observed. The size of the entire file needs to be resized as the size is not preserved from one application to the other. DIvide 1 by the size of the observed one inch square and then multiply by 100. Transform the entire file with the calculated percentage amount. Check the one inch square to see if it is now one inch. If so, the box is now ready to be cut.  (The one inch square is no longer needed, and can be deleted.)

Cut two of each size hearts, two side strips and two scallop hearts.

The same size scallop piece will be used for both the top and bottom of the box.
