Scrap Bucket Cozy

I saw a book recently that showed a quilted cozy around a mason jar that held buttons and I thought why not do something like that around my fabric scrap bucket? So I essentially made my quilt-as-you-go table runner and added some elastic pony tail holders and buttons to keep the cozy in place.

Scrap bucket cozy. This is the bucket I use to put all those scraps in that I use for stuffing for the cat beds I make for a no-kill shelter.
This shows the elastic pony tail holders and buttons to keep the cozy closed and in place. I forgot to take into account the extra plastic where the handles are attached, so that's why the top 2 buttons have that stuffed into a corset look.

Pin It Now!

  3. It's so pretty and has given me some ideas for covering some not very attractive containers. All I need now is some extra hours in the day. If you figure that one out please let me know. LOLLL
