Hanging Storage is a really useful way to organise your workspace! These Hanging Storage Pockets have two versions. Version A has four rows of pockets, ranging from six 2” high pockets to three 4” high pockets. The main pattern piece is fully marked up with everything you need to get sewing with this version. Version B is actually four versions or more! You get four additional marking guides, one for each style of pocket, and you use those guides to mark up the front so you can stitch your preferred style of pockets. This pattern is supported by a full tutorial video. The video shows you how to stitch either version.
Version A has a fully marked up pattern, ready for you to get sewing straight away!
I give instructions for making your own binding, but you can also use ready-made bias binding if you prefer
All of the lines on the front and on the pocket pieces are numbered, so it is easy for you to match them for stitching
I show you how to use washi tape or painter’s tape, so you can easily mark the stitching lines on your clear vinyl
The washi tape also means that you don’t need a walking foot to stitch the vinyl! You can use your ordinary machine foot
There are lots of markings on this pattern to make it an easy sew, and I show you exactly when and where to transfer each set of marks
Version B has four different marking guides, which you can use with the Version A front to create your own version.
These Hanging Storage Pockets are finished with a bound edge. For extra help with this step, download my FREE Quilt-Style Binding Guide and watch the tutorial video, where you will see me prepare and stitch the binding.
Watch the video for extra information about using fabric markers, using a binding maker, and transferring markings
This pattern is designed to be sewn on a domestic sewing machine; I use a Janome DKS 100.
