TUTORIAL LAVENDER SACHETS

Hi dear friends,

as promised here is a tutorial of how I made my little lavender sachets.

First choose some fabric scraps you like, I made them out of my Liberty fabrics.


 Futhermore you need cute little buttons, ribbon and dried lavender flowers.

Cut a piece of your fabric measuring 4 1/2" x 11" and a 2" piece of your ribbon. Fold in half and sew together with 1/4" seam allowance.

Turn down about 1/2" and sew in place.

Now box your sachet. Lie the curner flat on your working table, measure 1" and sew in place.

Cut away at a 1/4". Now fill about half of your sachet with dried lavender flowers.

Grab the opening and fold as shown, fix in place and sew.





Place the little ribbon piece and sew on. Fix your button in the center of the ribbon.



Done! You have a lovely last minute gift. Happy Holiday and peace.

LITTLE CHRISTMAS PRESENTS

Hi dear friends,

yesterday I went to my sewing room without really knowing what to do and stardet grabbing some fabric scraps (Liberty). Some time ago I bought dry lavender flowers with the idea to make perfumed sachets. And finally I ended up with three lovely gifts for Christmas.

Soon I'll make a tutorial to show how I made them. Have a nice week.
Hugs. Pink
