When it comes to sewing projects I ALWAYS want to purchase new material. However, turns out that my pocketbook does NOT want me to buy material for every new project (so sad). If you have been sewing for any length of time you know that you always have scrap material left from every project. I personally have been sewing for a really long time so I have a lot of scrap fabric!
So, since my pocketbook is so strict I have been trying to only use my scrap material for projects (I don’t always succeed). Do you have a stash of scrap fabric that you are wanting to use in projects? Maybe you just don’t know exactly what you want to make with your treasure trove of scrap fabric. Well, if that’s the case then your in luck! I’ve made a list of 10 super easy scrap fabric projects so you can use up some of your stash and end up with a cute creation for yourself or as a gift. And…..the best part is you didn’t have to spend any money on the fabric (total win!).
This post contains affiliate links. That’s just a fancy way of saying if you click on a link and purchase something I get a little money (total score for me). For more information, see my disclosure here.
1. Zippered Coin Purse!
The first project on the list is the zippered coin purse. This little cutie is by far the most requested project that I have ever made! I love this coin purse because it has a little tab and pearl snap fastener that makes it super snazzy (I’m a sucker for a tab). This cute coin purse is the perfect size to slip into your pant pocket when you want to only carry a few things to a concert or sporting event. Also, it doubles as a super cool way to give a boring gift card!
2. Journal Pen Holder!
Always losing your pens? I am! The journal pen holder helps keep your pens from getting up and walking away! This handy pen holder uses elastic that can be sized for any binder, planner, or book. It’s the perfect companion to your Bible notebook (my mom loves hers!)! Trust me this little project is a total game changer.
3. Mini Tissue Pack Cover!
Who doesn’t love mini tissues? I absolutely LOVE mini tissues but hate the packages they come in. So, to protect your mini tissues in your purse or backpack you can make the mini tissue pack cover. This project is SUPER easy and can be made under 30 minutes! It also makes a great quick gift or wedding shower favor.
4. SD Card Holder!
Need a storage solution for your camera memory cards? Then check out the SD card holder. This holder has a cute tab (I told you I love tabs) to keep it closed and has pockets sized to fit both small and large SD cards! So, start keeping your memory cards safe when their not in use!
5. Fabric Gift Bag!
I love giving gifts in cute gift bags. This is the reason that I made the super cute fabric gift bag to give small gifts in! This gift bag is the perfect size to fit small gifts, gift cards, or candy to give to someone special. Make any gift even more special by putting it in this too cute reusable fabric gift bag. Quickly make one or ten of these cute fabric gift bags today!
6. DIY Face Mask!
Need an easy DIY face mask? Then check this one out! This easy to make face mask takes no time at all. You can easily whip these up using scrap material and only have to purchase the elastic! This easy project will help use up some of your scrap fabric stash and will be super useful!
7. Planner Pocket Pouch!
Do you have a ton of notes and scrap paper that you keep losing or stashing in a planner? Then you desperately need the planner pocket pouch to add to any binder, book, or planner. This easy to make project helps keep all your important notes organized and looks good doing it! I LOVE having my planner pocket pouch in my planner so I no longer have to wonder where all of my little notes are!
8. Travel Jewelry Roll!
Have a trip planned? Then your NEED this travel jewelry roll! I love this jewelry roll because it’s large enough to hold all my jewelry but small enough to carry in my purse or backpack. Also, you could totally use this travel jewelry roll to give the gift of jewelry in! How cute would that be? Also, the free pattern includes three different sizes!
9. Business Card Holder!
Do you give out business cards? Then check out the business card holder which uses next to no material! What a better way to impress a potential client then pulling this little cutie out with your business cards! Also, it makes for a great conversation starter. This super cute holder can also double as a gift card holder to give as a gift!
10. Sanitary Pad Pouch!
Have you ever had that awkward moment when you pull out feminine products from your purse while your out and about? Trust me, if you’re a woman you know exactly what I mean! But guess what? You’re in luck because the sanitary pad pouch hides those products and makes it less awkward when you need to pull them out (all women rejoice).
So, are you inspired to take on one of the 10 easy scrap fabric projects? As much as I hate to admit it, there is a really good feeling when you make something super cute and spent absolutely nothing on the supplies (don’t tell my pocketbook)!
