Trinket Holder

This is a great way to practise free machine quilting. It uses 2 hexagons of cotton fabric and a hexagon of batting.
  1. Cut out a hexagon of the fabric for the inside of the piece.
  2. Cut out a larger hexagon for the outside.
  3. Cut out a piece of wadding the same size as the inner fabric.
  4. Layer the Outside, the wadding and the inside. Pin together.
  5. With a darning foot on the sewing nachine and the feed dogs dropped, free machine all over the inner fabric.
  6. Fold the outer fabric over the wadding and inner fabric and press with an iron.
  7. Put the feed dogs up and change to a walking foot if you have one, or a standard foot. Using either zig-zag or a fancy stitch, sew the outer edge down. The stitches cover the raw edge of the fabric.
  8. For each of the corners, fold the hexagon and draw a sewing line with chalk. Sew up and down the line with a straight stitch.
