October 14 Scrap Buster ~ Patchwork Buckets & Boxes

Patchwork Bucket by Constança, Saidos da Concha
Constança used scraps to create this fabric bucket, using a burlap bucket pattern from Maya*Made.
We have a free Bucket Pattern you could use. We’d love to see it sewn up like Constança’s scrap bucket! Elizabeth’s Stacking & Nesting Box Pattern would be great fun with this approach too. For more ideas try here, and be sure to link to related, completed projects or tutorials in the comments!

I’m going to have to try that. I need to start keeping my yarn stash straight. Hadn’t thought of putting my (as yet) Unused scrap extras to that use.
i love this idea! my favorite one yet…and they’re all so good and FUN. thank you!
Great idea! I think I’ll have to make myself a scrap bucket.
I love containers! I’d really like to make a few of these
This is another fabulous use of scraps—I love it!
Cute and functional!
such pretty scraps!
I love the look of this scrappy storage – I’ve been meaning to sew some baskets/buckets for toys, so this may be the project I do next.
Those nesting blocks are a great idea for my grandson!
Lovely! Would make a nice bucket to store some yarn too.
This is very cute. Thanks for sharing the free bucket pattern again. I have mean wanting to make something to put the littlest one’s toys in.
I think that’s the cutest bucket I’ve ever seen!
Oh, how perfect, a scrap bucket to hold scraps! OK I think I will give this a shot.
Love this! Great idea.
How beautiful! I really want to make one of these to store scraps and stuff in.
Thanks for the great idea!

Yes, yes, yes! I love this!
What a clever idea for using up your scraps.
Awesome way to use up scraps to make a bigger ’sheet’ of fabric for a project like this. Love your colours Constanca!
This is adorable!
love this bucket.must put this on the top of my list. thank you.
Love this bucket, how cute! Definitely on my to do list!
very cute! I was just wondering about making one of those the other day. Now I don’t have to figure much out.
That is darling!
I really love this bucket!!!! SO cute!
Oooooh, perfect! It’ll be a while before my little one is gathering his own toys, but this is still a wonderful idea for keeping them organized for him!
Love this. I so need to make this.
I love this idea. Great look for a scrap basket. Funcional, practical, and pretty.
What an absolutely adorable and functional way to use up those scraps!
I really need to try to make one of these–both to use up some of my old scraps and to contain my ever-multiplying pile of new scraps!
I like this idea a lot. Hope to make something like this for my scrapbooking area.
I love this idea…I can see them all over my house. In the bathroom with washcloths, fabric scraps, yarn etc… Fun!
I love the look of these. I have been wanting to learn how to make the fabric boxes and buckets because I need them to organize and they look so cute. Thank you for providing such nice tutorials for me to learn how.
By the way, in my opinion, Sew Mama Sew is in a league of its own. Of all the blogs I’ve visited, you are really superior in every way. I simply love your site as you never fail to provide something new or innovative for most everyone. I hope you never stop doing what you are doing. Thank you so much!! I am a true SMS fan.
This is such a GREAT idea and so cute! I am going to have to put this on my to-do list! After I finish all my to-do Christmas presents.
This is such a beautiful project!
Thank you for the idea!
I got inspired and made my own bucket, posted in my blog above. So happy with the result! ^.^
