Fabric Gift Tags

September 10, 2011 By Spoonful of Sugar - 16 Comments

Today I made up some fabric gift tags using the design in Sewing Bits and Pieces: 35 Projects Using Fabric Scraps. This project used plastic wrap (glad wrap) to fuse the fabric to the scrap booking card which worked surprising well.

It was a very quick project and was a great way to use up more pieces from my scrap tub.

I posted a review of Sewing Bits and Pieces last year that you can read here.

    Cute! Glad wrap? What a cool idea. Though I did try one of those project that iron together plastic shopping bags, and it was an epic craft fail.
