Patchwork Potholder & Fabric Fruit Bowl

What follows is the kind of lucid and step by step instructions you’ll be following to make one of these beautiful items…

Layering the plain linen underneath the cotton batting, you will sew the strips directly onto the batting.

- Take 2 strips and place them facing each other in the centre of your batting square and sew down one side.

Flip the top strip over (the right sides should be facing up) and press.

Take another strip and place it right side down (wiht raw edges aligned) onto the last sewn strip, sew then flip over and press open.

Continue in this way until your square of batting is completely covered.

Finish the fabric fruit bowl – Turn one of the sewn squares right side out and place it inside the other square (right sides should be facing).
