Fabric Bowl Materials:
Two 13” x 13” squares of 100% cotton quilting fabric
One 13” x 13” extra heavy weight double sided fusible
interfacing for craft projects
Thread to match
Wash-out marker for fabrics
Ruler or straight edge
Scissors or rotary cutter
Rotary cutting mat Instructions:
Sandwich fusible interfacing between two fabric squares,
right sides out and raw edges aligned. Fuse layers together
using cotton setting and steam. Place bowl template on fused sandwich and trace around outside
edges. Using scissors or rotary cutter and cutting mat, cut
out on lines drawn. Using straight edge or ruler, draw straight lines from one
inner point to the next creating a hexagon shape in center
of bowl. Using the satin stitch of your sewing machine, begin stitching
on top of lines drawn in center of bowl from inner point
to inner point. This will give your bowl a flat base. Working on inside of bowl, satin stitch blades together
from center outward. Pull raw edges together gradually as
you stitch to avoid puckering. Continue stitching blades
together to create your bowl. Once all blades have been stitched together, satin stitch
around entire top of bowl to finish off.
