Steps to make these DIY Sewing Mason Jar Kits:

First, I created the pin cushion on the top of the mason jar (Affiliate Link) lid. Then, I added a handful of filler and covered it with fabric, and added more as needed to make it full.  Now, I picked this picnic pattern since I was using Ball Vintage Style mason jars (Affiliate Link). I used small zip ties and placed them around the bunch of fabric on the bottom.

Cut fabric back

I then cut the fabric back so it isn't too bulky. The other part of the lid (shown below) holds the fabric and cushion in place.  Then, I went and added Washi Tape around the end that matched.

Buy Dollar Store sewing kits

I went to the Dollar store, like Dollar Tree (affiliate), and bought seven sewing kits. I got extra so that I could add more to each sewing kit.

Create labels

Then, I added labels (Affiliate Link). I added the Washi Tape in rows to match the patterns up and cut off the excess.  I left about 2 centimeters of tape, so I was able to fold it back.  I added a thick blue string.  Note I only had yellow tabs (Affiliate Link), but if you do this, you can buy white tabs (Affiliate Link) for a better look. Also, I also suggest adding a round sticker in the back to help keep the edges down.  Also, these round tags were from a discontinued Avery / Martha Stewart pack I bought at Staples a while ago.

Reveal:

Here is the final product! I made four full sewing kits and added them to the jars.

Tip: Storing them before giving them out

If you want to store these somewhere before giving them out, keep the box in which the Mason jars (Affiliate Link) came in.  It's handy to carry the finished sewing kits to hand out on the go.
