What a lovely idea! This is a great project for using up some fabric scraps.  It is also has very minimal sewing.  The only sewing is for attaching the ribbon at the back and the zigzag stitch around the photos. I love the stitching around the photos. Great idea for Mother’s Day. You could leave out the sewing and just use glue for the photos and ribbon to make this a no sew project.
