If you enjoy sewing, you probably have a healthy stash of scrap fabric, little bits of fabric left over from previous projects. (Or maybe an unhealthy stash, depending on how much you have!) A fabric trivet is a great project to use up some of those scraps! Larger than a coaster but smaller than a pillow, a fabric trivet is the perfect size to try out a new patchwork technique. All those scraps are perfect for a patchwork project like this! This is a bite-sized project that is always useful in your kitchen. You can use just about any patchwork design or technique to make a trivet. But if you’re looking for inspiration to get you started, here are 9 ways to sew a trivet from your scrap fabric!
If your scrap bin is full – or even overflowing, like mine tends to always be – these projects will give you a reason to reduce the volume and put your pretty fabric scraps to good use. Make one for yourself or to give as a gift. Read on to see all the pretty – and useful – trivet designs you can sew from your fabric scraps!
