The Hexi-Caddy - £5+VAT

The Hexi-Caddy is a really useful storage caddy designed as a star inside a hexagon, which means you have pockets which pop forwards, plus a bag for anything you don’t want to show off. It has two options as to pocket height, so you can choose what you want to store.

This pattern has a printable template for the inner and outer base. All of the other pieces are rectangles, which you measure and cut yourself.

This is a downloadable PDF pattern sent to your email, not a physical product, and cannot be refunded once purchased.

I have a photo tutorial which goes into detail about how to make and turn a fabric tube. You can find it here. I have also made a short video which demonstrates this technique. Find it on YouTube, here.

• Finished size

  Finished size approximately: 6” wide x 7” deep x 8” high

• Features of the Hexi-Caddy

  • Each element is finished before being joined together at the end, so no fiddly turning gaps;

  • There are instructions on how to turn a fabric tube using strong cord, making it a simple process;

  • The two pocket options are 3 1/2” or 4 3/4” high

  • The base is cut from two pattern pieces, to get the correct shape;

  • The base is finished off using a self-binding technique, which makes the bag stand up, even when filled

  • The pockets pop outward, and the top of the bag is pulled in, so you can fill up the centre of the bag even when the pockets are full.

• Supplies needed

  You will need: Cotton fabrics, fusible interfacing, fusible fleece (I have used Vlieseline low loft volume fleece), 3mm - 5mm cord, fabric marker, strong cord, such as a waxed linen thread

  Optional extras: ¼” machine foot, fabric glue stick, hump jumper, awl

• Suggested fabrics

  All fabrics: Quilting weight cotton

  Fusible Interfacing: Any woven or non-woven medium weight fusible interfacing

  Fusible Fleece: Vlieseline H630 low loft fusible fleece; Pellon fusible fleece, or similar

  Cord: 3mm to 5mm cord. I used a macrame cord as it is available in lots of colours.

• What is included in this pattern?

  The PDF comes as two separate files. The first contains a simple, six-step tutorial with fourteen photos, enhanced with graphics to make them easier to understand.
