Storage Bag for Clover Mini Iron

 

My first attempt at doing a triple zipper. My seam ripper got a lot of action during this project, I kept sewing the pieces together in the wrong direction 😫. I also had to attach the iron to the outside because it was just a bit too large to fit inside. I’m storing the cord inside the middle pouch, so I guess it worked out okay.

I watched this YouTube video a gazillion times to help create this- https://youtu.be/7tlPLdkFz5k 

Now that I have the general idea of how to make one, I'm excited to make other ones in different sizes.

I've added an ink penthouse to my art supply tower. Acrylic drawers purchased from Muji and The Container Store. Love them.

Linen Project Folder

Here is a jumbo size (14 x 24 x 3") linen envelope I created for holding patterns and materials.  Right now it is housing the uppers for a pair of boots that I am working on.  This envelope has 2 compartments, one holds the fabric/leather and the zippered part holds pens, patterns and small supplies. Although it is starting to get a little wrinkly, I still think it is a classy and more eco-friendly alternative to a plastic folder and it doubles as a blankie on the subway on the way to class :)

I got this craft idea in my inbox yesterday from Curbly via this site. After a nice hot cocoa I was able to finish up a half gallon plastic jug and test it out! Wow, so fun and easy! I want to make a whole collection now in different sizes. I opted for a snap instead of hook and loop (Velcro) from the original instructions. Because snaps are at least 10% classier. Maybe even 12% classier. I used Dritz snap pliers to attach the snap and to poke the holes on the flaps and Tim Holtz Scissors to cut out the plastic. I highly recommend those scissors, cuts through plastic and leather like butter I tell you.
