Fabric bon bons are a great little extra to make for a stitching friend .
Raid your scrap pile and cut the main fabric piece approx . 8" x 11".
Cut the centre piece approx . 3" x 8" .
Lay the narrow piece right side down , place the larger piece on top with the right side down .
Place a cardboard roll in the centre .The roll can fit all sorts of little goodies inside .
Try adding embroidery threads , buttons , needle packets even more fabric scraps rolled up .
Roll the fabric tightly around the tube and secure ends with braid , ribbon or ric rac .
These bon bons would make a fun lucky dip at your craft Christmas party or personalise
them for special friends by making them in their favourite colours and fabrics .
