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.
