Soft Fabric Photo Frames

Hello everyone. I have noticed I started making more baby projects. It seems that my kids grow so fast that I want to stop the time and catch those moments of tiny toes , soft fingertips and so on.

However I have never sewn so many as I do at the moments. I guess some changes are coming.

Today I’ve come to share 2 Photo Frames I made using Vintage  Baby Collection. But they are not ordinary.

They are like accordion and you can put up to 4 pictures inside.

I didn’t want to add flowers as the emebllishments, I wanted to keep its simplicity

I think it’s a good idea to combine sewing and papercrafting, it makes the projects to be unordinary.

The size of the pages is approximately  6*4,5 inches  ( 15*12 cm), so you can easily use 6*6 paper pad for this kind of frames.

  • Amazing albums here, and soooo beautiful and sweet both of them. I know exactly what you mean, about wanting to make the time stand still, because they DO grow up sooo fast, and before we know it, it´s the grandkids, we´re making cards for.
