Making the Thing: Part IV – :: Serendipity Muse ::

I had this small 5-inch square of fused fabric left over from the previous 2 projects, and decided to see what I could do with it.

Here’s what I did with it:

A small bowl made with yellow, white, and blue printed fabric. There is a small blue square at the bottom of the bowl, and there are 2 rings in the bowl, showing how small the bowl is. There are 4 rows of light blue satin stitching running from each corner toward the center square. The center square has satin stitching around it, as does the outer edge of the bowl. — A small trinket dish (inside)

The back side (or outside) of the fabric bowl is made with blue fabric, with a small 1 inch square of the yellow, white, and blue fabric at the center. There are 4 rows of light blue satin stitching running from each corner toward the center square. The center square has satin stitching around it, as does the outer edge of the bowl. — Outside of the small trinket dish

I used little 1-inch squares in the bottom of these squares, but I probably could have gone up to 1.5 inch or 2 inch squares. Still, I think it looks cute for a quick little project.

This was made the same way as the second (previous) bowl, just smaller.

Oh, and I found some glue stick that worked like a charm in holding the small squares in place until I could get them stitched on. I’ll still try some lightweight double-sided interfacing to see how well that works. Either way, I’ll have a workable solution.

Now, if I can just get the edge stitching to work the way I need it to…
