The costume is for children aged 3 to 7 years old.

4. Sew cushions and a cot mobile for the baby

Follow the steps shown on the fabric panel, with shapes and markings to help cut out and sew each piece, and see how easy it is to make a baby’s cot mobile.

How to make 100% handmade notebooks decorated with fabric

The last idea that we are sharing with you are these notebooks decorated with fabrics. Logically, you can buy the notebooks and decorate them, but what if we make the notebooks from scratch? Anna, from dyscostura, has created this wonderful Do it yourself tutorial in which she shows you how to make your own notebook decorated with fabric. In the video-tutorial, you will see how easy it is to make them.

You will also see that decorating notebooks with fabric is a great opportunity to recycle leftover fabric and cardboard scraps. Do you feel encouraged to make them?

We hope that you like these 5 sewing gift ideas and that you put them into practice so that this year all your gifts are 100% Handmade with Katia Fabrics.
