Tutorial: Scrap fabric memory game
Turn your fabric scraps into a memory game for the kids to play. And unlike the cardboard versions, these won’t get dogeared from repeated use. Becky from U Create shares a tutorial at Skip To My Lou showing how you can make one. This would be a great way to use up scraps of novelty prints.

The bag is simple, uses very little fabric (about 2/3rds of a fat quarter), has no fussy inside pockets (although you can add your own if you like), and takes me well less than 30 minutes to print the pattern, cut out and sew. But quick and simple doesn’t mean it’s not awesome!
It’s the sort of bag that is versatile enough to be used for lots of applications, not just cosmetics and toiletries. Keep all your pens and pencils in order, use it for a small first aid kit for the car, keep it in your desk at work for a few headache pills and other personal supplies.
Make some for yourself, for gifts or to sell.
