Sewing with leftovers: 25 creative projects to bust your fabric stash.

Bust your stash of fabric offcuts and waste with this brilliant collection of 25 projects, from expert stitcher Kate Haxell.

It’s a significant problem for crafters: you have fabric left over from a major project, but it’s too much to throw away and not enough for the next big project. Luckily, Sewing with Leftover Fabric has the eco-friendly answer, with 25 projects specially chosen to use up the odd metre or less of fabric.

There are a variety of projects to choose from. Keep yourself organised while you craft by making a pincushion, knitting bag and knitting needle roll. Update your wardrobe with a pretty tie-on collar or sew-on patches for your denim. Customise your home with a cat-shaped doorstop or a Dachshund draught excluder. All projects have clear, step-by-step artworks to guide you.

From pockets, pouches and purses that can be made in contrasting pieces of fabric, to puffs and rosettes that use up even the smallest pieces in your stash, you’ll be left with an empty stash drawer and a clear conscience.
