How To Make A Napkin Holder

Add a bit of crafty personalisation to your bbqs and picnics this summer with this napin holder. 

Take a look at how we made this below:

What you will need:

• TEMPLATE
  30cm x 30cm 

• COTTON CANVAS
  We chose cotton canvas because it is sturdy and therefore we did not need another fabric to stiffen up the project. We chose to use the Cherries on White and Navy.

• CUTTING BOARD
  For a flat surface you can cut on.

• SCISSORS
  To cut fabric.

• FABRIC MARKER
  To around edges of project.

• PINS
  To pin fabric to prevent it moving.

• THREAD
  You might want to choose a neutral white, or match the thread to your fabric.

• TAPE MEASURE
  To measure fabric and template.

• SEWING MACHINE

Layer fabric right sides facing, pin, draw around template, cut.
