Painted Fabric Patch Frame tutorial

Painted fabric patch frame. How many times we have small scraps of fabric left from our DIY projects? And we are always looking to utilize them into making something else.

I had been thinking of using the fabric scraps left from the pillows, I made for my bedroom for a while now.

So, I came up with this Painted Fabric Patch Frame.

A very quick and easy wall DIY project to match my room accents.

The chevron lines I traced using the printable template you can find linked below. I just love how it can simply become a part of any other setting if I decide to change things around my home.

Moreover the painted heart on the right corner of the frame makes it a beautiful gift for Valentine’s Day.

 I love chevron on the family silhouette canvases.

Painted Fabric Patch Frame

You Will Need:

• Fabric
• Paint (acrylic, fabric or any paint you like)
• Paint brush (I used size 1 for my small design)
• Double sided tape and scissors

Make It:

Start by cutting the scraps to your frame’s size.  I chose to have a 3 column patch-work style  You can patch rows, squares or anything your heart desires.  Next I ironed the seams on the sides and traced my chevron design on one of them.  If you want a chevron trace, you can print it in 4 different sizes HERE.

Now you can either sew or stick the patches together.  I just wanted an easy fix (and frankly I don’t have a sewing machine) so I used double sided tape and stuck the seams of the scraps over each other.  The result was pretty neat.

Then I place the mirror over the fabric to locate where I wanted to draw my heart.

Then I painted it all.

And this is what it looked like in only a minute.

Here it is framed and hung on the wall.

I love it! What about You?
