Sew a 5 Point Scarf from Square Piece of Fabric

This is easy to make and a dainty scarf to wear. Any little girl will love it. She can make it from a pretty printed cotton, rayon, or silk, or even in a solid color. She'll need a 14-inch square of fabric. Cut a 12-inch diagonal slash, as shown above. Narrowly hem all six edges—and that's all there is to it. The bias points forms the tie, and your little girl will find that it fits nicely around her neck. There are a number of ways of wearing it—tie it center front, center back, or on either shoulder. If your child wishes to make a reversible scarf of two contrasting colors, cut a 14-inch square of each color. Place right sides together and seam on all four sides. This can be done on the sewing machine or by hand with a simple running stitch. Press seams open, snip each corner off close to the stitching, and clip seams every few inches. Cut a 12-inch diagonal slash. Turn the scarf right side out. Press all the edges. Turn the four bias edges in 3/8 inch, press, then slip- stitch the edges together on each side. The size of scarf described here is for a young girl. If it is wanted as a gift for an adult, make it larger. Make the square 20 inches in size and cut the diagonal slash 18 inches.

Making Semaphore Flags

Materials need for this craft are the following ... Two 12" squares of muslin or sheeting or other fabric, 1 red wax crayon, 2 dowel sticks 16" long, thumbtacks, white thread, needle, pencil, scissors, newspaper, and hot iron. Sew a 1/4" hem on all sides of cloth. Draw a diagonal line between. two corners on each flag and color one-half of it with red wax crayola. Ask an adult to place colored side down on newspaper and set color with a hot iron. Tack to dowel stick. Here is a link to read more about how to use semaphore flags.

Make a Fabric / Cloth Design to Decorate Scrapbooks

Pictures made from cloth can be used to decorate gift boxes, luncheon sets, book covers, knitting boxes, and sewing bags. The design shown here was used to decorate a covering for a sewing scrapbook. Try making one. It's fun. It is great fun, too, to create cloth pictures using bits of lace and ribbon. You can use your creativity to make anything out of cloth. You don't even have to sew, yoou can just use sewing glue. It is a lot of fun, especially since ribbons and fabrics come in such beautiful patterns.

Sew a Protective Oven Mitt

Make a protective mitt for handling hot dishes from a worn, thick towel. First, cut a pattern on newspaper or large paper as shown in the picture above (notice that it is a number '3' shape that is closed with a line.) Using the best part of the towel, cut four thicknesses so it will be double front and back. Quilt two thicknesses together—that will make a more attractive mitt and will make it more durable. Draw light pencil lines where you want the quilting, and sew along these lines with a plain running stitch. Join front and back with a running stitch about 1/4 inch from the edge. Finish the edges with close overcasting stitches in red yarn or bind with contrasting bias tape.

Fabric Organizational Purse Arranger

This is a cool sewing project for girls who need some more organization for their purse. This craft will make pleasant addition of pockets to your purses or bags. Just get a block of fabric that is about the same width as your purse and double the height of your purse. Now fold over and stitch both sides. Push one of the ends in to form 2 tube-like pockets as you seen in picture numbet 2....stitch the pockets this way. You now can do the same thin on the other end to make 4 tubular pockets as seen in figure 3. You now have 5 pockets...4 tubular pockets and 1 big pocket. You can make pockets of different sizes, you don't need to arrange pockets the way that is shown here. Either way, this pockes addition will be welcome in your bags.

Use an Old Shirt for a Painter's Smock

Ask your Dad for one of his old work shirts that he doesn't wear anymore. Cut off his collar. Now turn the shirt from front to back...the way that you will wear your smock. Now take either fabric or strong, clear plastic (from a bag that bedding or a comforter comes in)...this will be what you make the front pockets out of. Now just cut out a big rectangle and cut the 3 sides, leaving a hole at the top. For multiple pockets...fold down the center 2 or 3 times. This makes a perfect smock...you can put brushes, rags, paints, pencils or whatever in our pockets and get it as messy as you want to.

Making Fabric Pouches

This is a great fabric pouch sewing project for first-time sewers. It isn't very difficult to make so teaching kids to sew with it might be a good idea. Just follow the directions int he illustrations above. Measure out the fabric to be 4 inches by 12 inches. Then fold over 2 pockets, each one inch in and then sew them up 1/4 inch from the fabric's edge. Then just fold the fabric in half with the pattern on the inside and sew the sides together evenly. Then just turn the entire thing inside out and thread some string inside the pockets and you have a beautiful pouch on your hands.
