    Thanks so much for this great idea, my sewing room has never been tidier! One thing I have changed is to use some scrap vinyl to make the back and the inner basket. This means that all scraps and cottons just slide in really easily and can be emptied without anything sticking to the sides. It’s so lovely my whole sewing group now have made at least one, sometimes two so each machine/serger has its own! Thanks again!

      I used Fusible Fleece in the video but I’d also recommend a fusible woven like SF 101. The purpose is to give it more structure. I haven’t tried it with this but I have with others. Using a second layer of woven fabric and sewing it in could help as well.

      I modeled them on a 9” tall book that was about 2” thick. But I’ve also used them on standard US notebooks that are 8.5”x11”x.5”. As long as your elastic has a lot of give they can be very versatile.

      I had someone else ask me about this so I gave it a try. It does work! However I would suggest not using the fusible fleece and just use a woven interfacing like SF101. Maybe even double layer that for more structure. I didn’t use it long term though so I’m not sure how well the corners will be protected.
