Flower Sugar Pouches

April 17, 2017 By A Spoonful of Sugar - 5 Comments

Flower Sugar Pouches made using free sewing tutorial from A Spoonful of Sugar www.aspoonfulofsugardesigns.com

I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter holiday!  I am slowly getting back into sewing again after a couple of weeks on holiday, including a fabulous vacation to Seoul and Singapore. I wanted to share with you the Flower Sugar Pouches I made for Easter. These are a fun little project and can be made in next to no time at all. When you gather the drawstring, they look like little flowers, and are perfectly sized to hold some mini Easter eggs or small gift/treat.  Our tutorial for the Fabric Gift Pouch is one of our most popular tutorials. You can find our original tutorial here and an updated tutorial here. There are lots of step by step photos and instructions. This is a beginner friendly project.

Made from two, 8 1/2 inches squares of quilting cotton, – they are constructed in under 30 minutes. I love the combination of pink and yellow, and combined my favourite prints from the Flower Sugar Very Berry Cherry collection by Lecien Fabrics which was released in Fall 2017. For the drawstring, I used Chinese Knotting Cord.

    Too cute! What a fun project for a sweet gift bag. May Day is soon and so is Mother’s Day here in the US. I can think of a few good uses for this delightful little bag.

    Oh these are so so pretty! A nice but quite boring little gift like soap or sweets would be transformed into something very special to receive. And what about filling with a Lavender sachet for a drawer. Love them!
