One of Alicia Welcher’s greatest joys in going back to school in her youth was the ability to purchase a new Trapper Keeper. She has now created the adult version of this handy catch-all to be used for sewing! In this online class, you will learn how to create this zip-up binder cover with inserts to organize all of your favorite sewing notions in one convenient location.
The front of this adorable organizer showcases a band of machine embroidery adorned with shaped trims that are easily achieved using innovative rulers from Quick Points.
On the inside, two side pockets fit over the sides of a three-ring binder, yet still have enough room to hold your favorite small ruler and/or cutting mat. The organizer is filled with multi-pocket notions “pages” that fit onto the binder rings using metal grommets or buttonholes. The notions pages are made with vinyl windows so that you can easily see what is inside. They also use zipper-by-the-yard and multiple zipper pulls, allowing you to customize your notion storage options by dividing each page into anywhere from one to six pockets. The outside of the organizer uses a durable two-way handbag zipper to zip entirely closed, keeping all your notions and other project materials securely in place.
In addition to the video tutorial, an instructional PDF and machine embroidery files are included.
Video run time: Two hours and 58 minutes. This start-anytime course is self-paced. You can begin the moment you register, viewing the course anytime that is convenient for you.
