Around the Bobbin has a new pattern, called Clearly Organized, which is a set of 6 sizes of zippered pouches made out of clear vinyl. They can be made with handles or not. As one of the testers of this pattern, I chose to test the 2 largest sizes, since I thought those would be the most useful to use as project bags for either quilting or knitting. The larger bags measure 12" x 15" and 16" x 16". I love that you can clearly see what is inside these bags, making it easy to find your project or supplies or whatever you keep inside of the bags.
The pdf pattern is on sale for $8 (regularly $10), that's 20% off! Sale price good through midnight November 29, 2020 (CST). Go here to buy the pattern.
Here are the 2 larger sizes I made~

| I used a sewing theme fabric for this bag. |
 |
| While only one fabric is required, I didn't have enough of the main fabric, so I combined it with an accent of purple fabric at the top where the zipper is and the under side of the handle is purple too. |

I wanted to show different backgrounds in these next photos~

| And here I filled the bag with some fabric. |

| 2 folded Fat Quarters inside this bag to show you the room in this bag. |

These would make great project bags! That way you can see what you're NOT working on! LOL Seriously, they are really cute!
ReplyDeleteI am off to purchase my pattern as soon as I finish typing this comment. I LOVE this idea. My sewing room is organized with shelves with plastic bins on the shelves. Each plastic bin holds a project...but I am running out of bins. I can see how these bags would work wonderfully to organize projects. One could loop several project bags over a simple behind the door hook of the type that people have in their bathrooms to hang their robes on. Love this as it is a new way to store more quilt projects! Yippee!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you like this idea. And I like your idea about hanging on hooks on the door. Since you are a no reply, I am answering you here, since I don't have your email to respond back. Happy sewing and Happy Thanksgiving too!
DeleteThose are really useful, but fun. Great way to keep track of what is in the bag, but also you can show off what you are working on, when we get back to normal life again, when you go somewhere and have to wait and still work on something.
ReplyDeleteClear bags are so nice for organizing projects for my quilting trips with friends. Yours look so pretty!
ReplyDeletelove these bags. I need to make some they are so helpful especially when your looking for something small in a bag or wondering if you remembered to pack your thread scissors. of course you choose fun fabrics to that make the tote very fun to look at. They look like perfect bags for an embroidery project as well. thanks for sharing
