These Pocket Baskets are Great for Sewing Supplies
You Can Also Use Them All Around the House!
These attractive fabric baskets, or pods, can help you stay organized all around the house. They’re designed with pockets placed inside, outside, or both, to give you more storage options. Or omit the pockets if you don’t need them.
Hanging loops allow them to be hung from a pegboard or elsewhere. Or stand them on a shelf, table, or just about anywhere. You may even want one for your car.
Plus, they’re easy enough for beginners and go together quickly. You’ll likely be able to make one an hour once you’ve completed the first one – which is great because they also make thoughtful gifts.
Start with a fat quarter for the outside, a coordinating fat quarter for the lining, and half of a fat quarter (fat eighth) for the pocket. Fusible fleece interfacing from HeatnBond is used to provide structure for the bins and to strengthen the pockets.
The finished baskets, designed by Caroline from Sew Can She, are approximately 7 1/2” tall and 7 1/2” wide, not including the hanging loop. With the hanging loop, they are 9 1/2” tall.
