Free sewing pattern: Fabric apple and pear

These fabric apples and pears are perfect for autumn decorating, especially when you make them out of tweeds and flannels! I’ve got a free pattern and tutorial for you over at Bombshell Bling. I used a mix of osnaburg, flannel, and recycled and upcycled wool to make a whole bowl of them to go on my dining table! They’re also pretty individually as accents for a side table or mantelscape.
