Delectable DIYs: Spoonflower sewing tutorials used to make our culinary-themed creations

Scrun-cheese

Artist Community Manager, Jessie, followed Spoonflower’s scrunchie tutorial for the smaller scrunchie, then experimented with bigger pieces of fabric to create two larger scrunchies that could really show off Cheese Food Doodle on Dark Blue by caja_design. Her medium scrunchie used a 17” x 5” (43.18 x 12.7 cm) piece of fabric (we recommend Celosia Velvet™), and her large scrunchie used 18” x 7” (45.72 x 17.78 cm).
