Necessary materials

• Fabric – to be the main piece in the desired color
• Various color fabrics and prints – or patchwork
• Scissors
• Needle
• Thread – Crochet or Retro
• Eyelets
• Eyelet Pliers
• Hammer

Step 1

Cut out a rectangular piece of fabric the size and color you want the organizer to do and hem approximately 2 cm at each end of it. Then drill a few holes with the eyelet pliers into one of the sheaths along the width of the fabric and insert the eyelets. Reinforce them with the hammer.

Step 2

To create the pockets that will form the organizers, cut several pieces of fabric into different sizes and shapes.

Step 3

Arrange the cutouts on the rectangular fabric, which will be the basis of the organizer pockets, to get an idea of their visual arrangement. Then sew each of the flaps by hand with a needle and double-threaded thread (for added strength) using the toothpick stitch – or any other stitch you prefer.

Ready! Your fabric organizer can now be hung on the wall to organize the sewing studio and other spaces.
