Patchwork scarf using cotton scraps and fleece
I made this scraf to use some of my fabric scraps and I like how it turned out =)
It's a nice and quick project and I think I'll make several of those as christmas gifts this year ^^

  • How to make a fabric scarf. Patchwork Scarf - Step 1
    Step 1

    Gather your cotton fabrics and cut squares using a template made of paper.

    My squares measure 14x14cm, including 1cm seam allowance - I've made 11 aquares, so the finished scarf will measure 12x132cm.

    Sew the squares onto each other to make a long stripe (or scraf, that is ^^)

    Now it's time to fold the seam allowances and press them like you'd do if you made hems.

    Cut the fleece, leaving a small border (~5mm) around the scarf.
    Don't worry, fleece fabrics won't fray.

    And you're done!

Completely cool :3

Side notes :
Step 3: you missed one word it should read "Press the seam allowances open"

and

If anyone is lazy about it, you can get things call "Fat Squares" or "Fat Quarters" that are pre-cut squares of fabric sold at places like Joann's and Michel's stores
