WASHABLE REUSABLE SEWING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Cut Your Fabric. Here’s what you need to cut: (You can use a rotary cutter to cut super straight lines or wing it with scissors if you prefer.)
Woven fabric: cut 2 pieces of 3 ½: x 5 ½” rectangles for the sponge base.
Net mesh fabric: cut 2 pieces of 3 ½” x 5 ½” rectangles for the scrubby part of the sponge.
Cotton batting: cut 3-4 pieces of 3 ½” x 5 ½” rectangles for the inside of the sponge.
Lay all of your pieces together
2. Place one piece of woven fabric with the right side up (the side of the fabric you want to see is the right side), and then place two pieces of net mesh fabric on top.
3. Now place the second piece of woven fabric with the right side down on top of the mesh layers.
4. Then place 3-4 pieces of cotton batting on top.
Pin layers together and mark an opening
5. Pin the layers together nicely. 6. Mark a 2” opening on one side of the sponge in chalk or a washable fabric marker. This will mark the opening that you will use to turn the sponge right side out after sewing.
Sew layers together and remove pins
7. Sew the layers together using a ¼” seam allowance along the edges, starting from the opening mark and finishing the stitch at the other opening mark. Don’t forget to backstitch when you start and finish your seam. 8. Remove the pins.
Trim corners and turn sponge right side out
9. Trim the corners to lessen the bulk.
10. Turn the sponge right side out, so that the right side of the woven fabric is on one side of the sponge, and the mesh fabric is on the other side.
Fold in opening and topstitch
11. Now tuck the opening raw edges inside the sponge, and pin the opening closed.
12. Topstitch around the entire sponge carefully about ⅜” in from the edge. You can choose to add a second topstitch ¼” away from the first one if you would like. You are done!
