Easy DIY Mini Fabric Basket | FREE Sewing tutorial

June 15, 2022 Brigitte Heitland

Sew a set of three cute mini fabric baskets with the free easy-to-follow tutorial. The fabrics from the series EVEN MORE PAPER by Zen Chic are perfect to be spiced up with a contrasting lining.

Would you like to know how to sew these

Fun Mini Fabric Baskets with a Tutorial

They are quick to make and perfect for storing and organizing so many small items.

Think of sewing notions, any sweets, or - as I used them - as a decorative flower pot.

Make a set of three, and give them a contrasting interior fabric. So these have some prints of my line EVEN MORE PAPER on the outside, while the linings are bright blenders from the collection GRUNGE.

FREE PDF pattern download

Sharon Holland was kind enough to provide a free tutorial for these cute organizers, you can download her PDF pattern here

For our blog post, Bärbel made us this adorable set of three and they are featuring my low volume line EVEN MORE PAPER. Bärbel has already made a couple of projects for us and you can find more of her on her Instagram feed @otticreativ.

Since they are so easy to make and also a nice scrap buster, I guess you can’t get enough of those. Finished in just one afternoon, the fabric basket makes also a nice gift. Fill it with the favorite items of your friend, be it a new wool ball for a scarf, some paper cups for a cupcake baker, or a luxurious skin oil so your best friend feels really spoiled - in each case the gifted one benefits not only from the content in the basket but also can use the lovely handmade package for many purposes later.

This set of three cute mini fabric baskets is ideal for storing anything small like sweet snacks, hobby supplies, or make-up items. Use the free pattern download. The exterior fabric is EVEN MORE PAPER by Zen Chic, the lining is GRUNGE.

Mini fabric baskets can be used for so many things, store your knitting project inside or give your plants a decorative pot cover. Make them with a tutorial and a free pattern download. The exterior fabric is EVEN MORE PAPER by Zen Chic, the lining is GRUNGE.

Let me know in the comments, what you would do with this set of three?
