Fabric Scrap Piecing

Hello Everyone,

I have made another fabric scrap project. Instead of crumb piecing as in my last post, I cut the left over fabric in to 1 1/2” x 2 1/2” rectangles. When pieced together in pairs along the 2 1/2” edge, the pairs become 2 1/2” squares and if pieced together in alternating directions it turns in to a basket weave like pattern.

I made this table runner the same way I made the wall hanging in my last post minus the hanging sleeve. You can find that post here.

Mini Scrap Sewing Projects


Hello Everyone,

Lately I have been playing around with my scraps while deciding what my next big project is going to be and what direction I want to go with my sewing.

I think it’s fun with scrap projects. The keyring/zipper pouch in the picture is made with cut off corners from pencilcases  I made earlier in the year.

It is a simple zipper pouch that’s 2″x2″ with boxed bottom corners and a tab with a 1″ split ring.


The two mini baskets in the picture above is made from corners cut off from boxed zipper pouches I made last year. They are about 2″x2″ in the base and 1″-1 1/4″ in height. I have made the lining 1/2″ higher so it “wraps” around the top edge and looks like a binding.

Until next time Happy Sewing and Take Care!

Annika
