Bicycle bucket tutorial. Just want to say thank you to Vanessa from V & Co. and all her wonderful readers! Thanks for letting me be your guest today. Ready for a fun summertime project? My husband and I were doing some tune ups on my daughter's bike earlier this spring - you know, new tires, paint the handlebars, fix the seat, fun stuff. So, when we were out tire shopping I saw the cute bike baskets at the store. I was like "oh, we have to get her a basket, it would be so fun" and he's like "you should just make one". Materials: Fabric Storage Boxes (per your request) Okay, the fabric storage box tutorial is here.
(Sorry for the little tease last friday and no actual tutorial. We were trying to get on the road for our trip to ID…..so things got crazy last week. But we’re here. And safe. And enjoying Idaho. I’m guessing there are probably 100 different ways to make fabric boxes though. (And last year, I even made storage boxes out of cardboard here, if interested.) So for today’s fabric boxes, I kept things moderately simple……and not too costly. Anyway, maybe some of you have made fabric storage boxes before……..but here’s my version. (And yeah, I’ll be making a few more. The boxes have side handles…….and a front window to slide in a content label. So what kind of stuff do you need organized? But what’s keeping those bins nice and upright? So make some for the kids room, for your craft room, for the storage shelves in your den, up in that one empty spot on the book shelf……..or even to throw in the car between the bucket seats.
See? And that’s it. Pretty fabric bin organization. Moda's Half Moon Modern Sewing Room: Task Basket - Sew4Home. How Tuesday: Stoffkörbe nähen. Bei unserem gestrigen Siebdruck Workshop haben wir mit Euch fleißig Stoff bedruckt, besprüht und in netter Runde geplaudert.
Es war wieder ein richtig schöner Abend mit Euch in unseren Berliner Etsy Labs! Die Bilder dazu findet Ihr auf unserer Facebook-Seite. Diejenigen, die leider nicht kommen konnten und an Infos über das Siebdrucken interessiert sind, sollten sich unbedingt den Artikel von Kristina zum Thema Siebdruck ansehen. Hier findet Ihr Anlaufstellen in Berlin, Potsdam und Hamburg sowie nützliche Seiten im Internet. Schreibt... Anleitungen für Stoffkörbe auch Utensilos genannt gibt es viele, aber meist auf englisch wie hier.
Dabei ist es nicht schwierig und geht auch wieder gut ohne Schnittmuster. Man muss nur etwas rechnen und vielleicht vorher mit Papier ausprobieren. Also erstmal zum Schnittmuster: Ihr benötigt ein quadratisches Stück Stoff z.B. 30×30,40×40,45×45 oder größer. Ich habe 40×40 cm verwendet. Die Höhe der Stoffkörbe wird mehr, umso größere Quadrate ihr herausschneidet und dabei wird die Fläche auf dem es steht jedoch auch kleiner, also muss man ein entsprechend größeres Stück nehmen… Also rechnen wir jetzt mal ein bisschen… Wie wollen eine Korb mit 15 cm hohen Kanten und einer 10×10 cm Fläche 15+15+10 =40 cm großes quadratisches Stück + 2 cm Nahtzugabe hinzu.
So nun das quadratische Stück in der entsprechenden Größe jeweils für innen und außen zuschneiden, dann jeweils zur Hälfte falten und dann nochmal zur Hälfte. Wenn man es dann aufklappt, sieht es wie folgt aus an den Ecken feststecken. Back with buckets ! Hiya, Here is my very belated bucket tutorial.
I was hoping to do this for Whiplash but never mind. I fluffed the first lot of photos but had to use one of them here as I missed a step - just ignore the fact that the fabrics change won't you? There are probably a gazillion versions of these floating around in the craft cyberspace, so these are the way I make mine. They are super useful for little things in the sewing room or for hair ties and stuff ! For each bucket you will need:· 5 ½ x 18 ½ inch strips of outer fabric, light wadding and iron–on interfacing.· 6 x 18 ½ inch strip of lining fabric (note it is a bit bigger so you get the nice trim at the top.· Circles measuring 6 inches across in outer, wadding, interfacing and lining for the base. Step 1. With outer fabric and lining right sides together (and the wadding interfaced piece under the outer fabric) sew along the long (18 1/2 inch) edge that will be the top of the bucket. You can see the layers here. Open up and press the seam. Fabric Baskets.
Another You Asked 4 It survey request crossed off the list. Several people asked about structured fabric baskets. We're guessing there must be a lot of Sew4Home fans out there with a lot of stuff they need to organize in some terrific totes. We've come through with not just one but a pretty pair: a large basket measuring 10" wide x 8" tall x 6" deep and a small companion at 8" wide x 7" tall x 5" deep. The two nest perfectly together. Wouldn't these make an awesome wedding shower gift filled with kitchen or bath goodies?! We dove into our stash for this project and came us with four beautiful Michael Miller Fabric prints that are still available through numerous outlets. We found Divine Damask in Black at Fabric.com , Hawthorne Threads and Emerald City Fabrics . Our You Asked 4 It survey article is still live on the site and we still check for new comments.
