How to Make a Fabric Memo Board

October 4, 2011

 Here is another project in my goal towards a new look for Lil W’s room–a fabric memo board.
Click here to see the DIY truck wall art project.
And click here to see the DIY Children’s Artwork Display.

Before we get started, please note that I made some mistakes with this project and learned a few “crafty” lessons.  Read my “lessons learned” at the end so you don’t make my same mistakes.

18 x 24 Canvas
Quilters batting a few inches larger than the canvas
Fabric of your choice in the same size as the batting
I purchased this number fabric from Joanns.
Lots of tacks or brads
6 yards of ribbon
Hot glue
Scissors

1. Cut the batting to be about 2 inches larger than the canvas all around.
2.  Set the canvas face down on the center of the batting and tack to the back of the canvas.
3. Fold over the corners like you are wrapping a present, and then tack into place.
4. Flip over your canvas and it should look soft like #4.

1. Set the padded cancas face down on the fabric.
2. Wrap the fabric and tack into place following the same steps used with the batting.

Now this is the kind of tough part. Start at the top left corner and wrap one strip of ribbon from one end to the other as shown in the photo.  Use hot glue or tacks to set the ribbon in place on the back of the canvas.  Continue this step until you have created approximately 5 strips of fabric across the canvas {see below}.

Follow the exact same steps with the ribbon going the opposite direction on the canvas.

Then use the remainder of your tacks or brads to place inbetween all the intersections of the ribbon.
LESSON LEARNED:  I would suggest using brads on the intersections of the ribbon.  I used tacks and then I had to apply a large blob of hot glue to the back of the tacks so that they wouldn’t fall out or scratch someone.  This wouldn’t be a concern if you used brads. And you can even find really cute ones in the scrapbooking section of your local craft store.

That’s pretty much it. I’m still waiting to finish a few more projects before I hang everything up. But I’m hoping to have it all done soon. So stay tuned for Lil W’s room reveal.

    This is so cute! I have a vintage framed magnet memo board in baby J’s room as well. I use it sort of as a displayable baby book {complete with his ultrasound, baby shower invite, pics, his hospital bracelets etc.} Its hands down my favorite thing in his whole room. And I’m in the process of making a giant one for my office lol

    Great tutorial!

    I just made one for my 8-year old daughter’s room and I agree that they are fun and simple to make. I honestly spent more time browsing fabrics at the store than the time it took me to assemble this. I plan to make one for myself and possibly more as Christmas presents. Thanks for posting!

    I think that what you published was actually very logical.
    However, what about this? what if you composed a catchier post title?
    I mean, I don’t wish to tell you how to run your
    blog, but what if you added a post title that
    grabbed folk’s attention? I mean How to Make a Fabric Memo
    Board – craft – Little Miss Momma is kinda boring.

    You could glance at Yahoo’s home page and see how they write news titles to grab
    viewers to click. You might add a video or a pic or two to get people interested about everything’ve written. Just my
    opinion, it might bring your posts a little livelier.
