Fleece Fun! Fleece Remnants Unboxing Plus 4 Easy Fleece Projects

Рет қаралды 2,854

Күн бұрын

I bought a 5kg box of fleece remnants for £14.99 (UK Money) - super cheap! My son helped me unbox it (he loves watching toy unboxing videos so this was a thrill for him!).
We then made some fleece projects. In this video are 4 super simple beginner fleece sewing projects and in a separate video later in the week I will show you a stuffed fleece toy I made with my son and give my tips for sewing with kids.
The simple projects in this video are:
- easy kid's fleece mittens
- reversible neck warmer or cowl neck scarf
- Extra warm Two-layer fleece wrist warmers or 'fingerless mittens'
- Fleece Wheelchair Blanket with velcro straps
I use fleece for quilt backs quite a lot and documented my first tries with this in this video:

You'll also find the fleece hearts cushion project I mentioned in this video in my 12 Stashbuster Projects video:
• 12 Stash Buster Sewing...
The Stroller Quilt Video I mentioned is here:

The UK Fabric Store where I bought this box of fleece remnants is here: www.tiaknightfabrics.co.uk/se...
(I am not sponsored by them I just bought a box and really liked it!)
You can find other fleece remnant bundles from small businesses selling on Etsy: tidd.ly/3VcFmN1

I'm going to make some of the mittens for my grandkids and fingerless mitts for myself. You can braid 3 long strips (roughly 2 inches wide) together and make pet toys. My puppy loves it to play tug.

Fab! Glad you are going to try some of these. I’ve seen those dog toys - pity I don’t have any friends with dogs to give them too! I need to find something I can make for my cats - but they probably don’t need me to sew anything, they’d just be happy if I let them sit in the box 😂

I like to make fleece hats. I add an extra 4-6" to the height. Cut 1/2" strips at one end, sew tube, gather strips to form the pompom or ponytail depending on length added. Tie with scrap fleece of same or different pattern.

OMGness, I have been busy playing with my Moxie and I haven't been around. I've so missed your videos. I'm loving this video cause I have a bunch of leftover fleece that I need to use. Have you tried quilting with fleece on your Moxie yet? Your helper is super cute!

@ScrapFabricLove Жыл бұрын

I have used it on the Moxie actually. As backing fabric. I did have issues but I think it was because I was using a ridiculously thick batting (like made for upholstery and not quilting). I will have a video soon about that quilt - it’s a panel quilt that caused me more hassle than I thought it would but turned out well in the end! Hope you are enjoying your Moxie!

@ScrapFabricLove Жыл бұрын

Hi - you’ll need to search fabric stores near you I think. Shipping wouldn’t make it worth it to get it from the same place I did. Google something like ‘fleece remnants ‘ or ‘fleece scraps’ or ‘fleece offcuts’. If you have Etsy that might be a good place to try too! Good luck!
