Fabric Crafts - Sewing Crafts - Patchwork Crafts - Mini-Wallhanging for Teens Tip: All sewing gets done with a 1 cm seam allowance. After sewing, cut away 1/2 cm seam allowance so the pieces will lay flatter. This flower power look fits perfectly in a teenager’s room! The mixture of reds and oranges gives it also a nice summer look. Basic patchwork and sewing experience is required to make the mini - wallhanging.      All patterns, pictures and text found on Craftideas.info are property of this website and may be only printed out and used for    private or non-commercial purposes.
