Scrap Bowls

At CQs evening group, I shared making these bowls - most watched and three members made one.  I have been making these bowls for years, since getting the pattern from one of my sisters.  Great to use as thread/scrap catchers beside your sewing machine - simple turn inside out to empty.  I have also made them out of Christmas fabric an used as a table decoration (filled with miniature pine cones or sweets) and a much larger one I fill with chocolates!  You can also make them for little girls to store their hair slides, ties, bows, etc - just use pretty fabric and decorate with ribbons, ricrac, buttons, beads, etc.
the two (purple and mauve) are old and in constant use.  The other three were samples I used at the class and have now finished.
