Laminated Fabric Charm Square Trays

We have been sewing some more Charm Square Fabric Trays as they are so fast and fun to make. This time we thought we'd use laminated fabric so you can use the little trays for food too and they are easy to wipe over. This fabric is Remix Slicker Laminated Cotton Polka Dots Pastel, designed by Ann Kelle for Robert Kaufman Fabrics.

A cup of tea, anyone? It's still super hot here in Italy. So if you prefer a cold drink, we know you're not going to say no to macaroons!

Can't resist a pretty polka dot... and tea with macaroons, of course! 

Yesterday we found these lovely jars with a pink lid, made in Italy by Bormioli Rocco. They are so pretty!

They are called Vaso Fido and come in other colours too. They are a great size for storing buttons and whatnots in our sewing room too!

We have a feeling we are going to be getting more of these...

Where are we?

In case you are wondering where we are, you can find us on Instagram @ellaandnesta. We have been enjoying ourselves looking at everyone's creations and all the ideas whizzing around on IG. At the moment we're super summer busy, so Instagram fits in very well with making the most of time shortage!

You have probably seen quite a few of these Charm Square Fabric Trays and they really are fun and fast to make. The free tutorial is on A Spoonful of Sugar here.

We made two with some favourite apple fabric and used a bright red polka dot fabric on the back of one and linen on the other. The polka dot is definitely our favourite!
