PATCHWORK FABRIC POTS PDF digital download sewing pattern
This is a PDF digital download sewing pattern that will be automatically emailed to you following purchase for you to print off at home and assemble following the easy instructions provided.
This pattern is a perfect stash busting project to make wonderful patchwork, scallop edge fabric pots. You can tailor make your pots to suit your plants or use to store your crafty bits and bobs.
The pots can be be made free standing or suspended with cord at a window- its up to you!
This easy to make fun pattern includes templates that have been arranged on four A4 sheets to print off on any home printer. The instructions can be viewed on your device or also printed off on to A4 sheets of paper. There are two pot diameter sizes: small 13cm (5") or large 18cm (7") and an easy to follow step by step colour photo/illustrated instruction booklet. LEVEL: beginners.
The pots can be made in a choice of two versions: Version A which is segmented all around the side edge and Version B has a top border band, as well as segments of different fabric along the lower side (see image 6). You can also stitch on an optional trimming such as Ric-Rac or little pom-poms along the seam line as an extra feature.
Transparent PVC can be added to the lining but this is not essential, alternatively, you can just pop a plastic container inside to protect the base (empty hummus pots or a small plastic bag are good).
Please note: I do recommend watering the plant outside of the pot and replacing when all the excess water has drained off, but I do this anyway with all my plants.
One pot requires the following:
OUTER FABRIC- five pieces measuring 20cm x 20cm (8" x 8").
LINING FABRIC- 25cm x 112cm (1/4 yd x 44").
INTERFACING (heavy weight fusible)- one piece approx. 50cm x 90cm (1/2yd x 1yd).
CLEAR TRANSPARENT PVC FABRIC (optional) -one piece approx. 25cm x 90cm (10” x 35”).
TRIMMING (for version B)- such as Ric-Rac, ribbon or Pom Pom trimming. Large pot requires a 60cm length, 15mm (5/8”) wide.
Small pot requires a 50cm length, 10mm (3/8”) wide.
COTTON CORD (for hanging pot only) 5mm (1/4”) width. Small & large pot requires 2m (2yds).
WOODEN RING – one ring per pot measuring approx. 2.5cm-4cm (1”-1 1⁄2”)
CARDBOARD – a 15cm x !5cm (6” x 6”) piece of sturdy cardboard.
Please note all instructions are written in English with metric and imperial measurements. Sized templates are included in the pattern.
