Fabric Organisers: Simple Sewing for Stylish Storage

1. Introduction: Hi, Claudia. Welcome to this class where you will be learning to make fabric organizers using simple sewing tacos, tailored exactly to your notes. Whether you want a compact box for office supplies or a spatial storage solution for your home, customizing the size and design ensures it fits perfectly to your space in lifestyle. As someone who loves designing or crafting by hand, I believe there is nothing more satisfying than transforming simple materials into beautifully tailored, functional pieces. That enhances your daily life. Your class project for you design and make your own organizer and post a picture of it in the project section. So I can provide my feedback while everyone can get inspired. So gather your materials, envision your ideal organizer, and let's dive into the world of custom arma design. 2. Getting Started: For this project, I'm using 18 inch by 11 inch fabric piece, one unached fabric, and one printed cotton fabric. In this class, you will be making a medium sized fabric organizer. But if you would like to opt for a larger version, then I recommend you to use a thicker and denser fabric like canvas or heavy weight cotton fabric. So that it will add extra stability for your fabric organizer. And for making a larger version of fabric organizer, you have to simply cut a larger rectangular shades of fabric. Fabric preparation. I have washed the fabric dry and he dressed it for a smooth and clean surface. So I recommend you to do so. So if you see, I have taken a printed fabric and a plain unbleached solid fabric. So I'm going to align this the right sides facing together and matching all the edges and corners like this. So using the pins, let's secure them. Now I'm going to make a stitch along this edge. Zing ten, and I'm saying a once. So let's get started with that. So make sure you closer and close it with a backstitch. So now let's remove the pins and open the fabric like this. Let's continue is threads. Now, let's open the seam allowance like this and flatten it using a heat press Perfect. Now, if you notice we have flattened our seams and neatly heat pressed. So the next step is to fold the fabric into two and make sure you align the seam line perfectly in the center like this and then flatten it like this. Again, using some pins, let's secure them together. Perfect. Now, we are going to make a stitch along this edge. Make this. Again, with ten MM Sam allowans. So let's quickly do that. I'm going to start with the backstick I'll slow and steadily stitch along the edges. Perfect. Now, let's align this seam along the center like this and flatten the entire piece. Now it's time to open up this seam and heat press this too. Perfect. So we have clean seam allowances across the vertical and the horizontal direction. So now it's time for us to close the top edge and the bottom edge. By closing the bottom edge, we are going to leave five centimeter gap in the middle just to enable our fabric to get flipped inside out. So let's begin with the top edge first. Again, we are going to keep the seam allowances and, so we'll have the seam allowances across our entire project in uniform form. I'm going to close the top edge completely. Now, let's measure five centimeter in the middle like this so that we will not miss out this. So this is the gap we are going to leave here. So here, there is no stitches. We are not going to make any stitches here. We are going to make this stitch along this point to this and this point to this. So if you notice we have the gap over here. Using this gap, we will flip this inside out. So let's begin flipping. Simply push the fabric inside out through this gap. This might take a little time, but you have to be very fresh over here. Now using a Ponchia tool, we are going to sharpen out the corners like this. So we have four corners. So once you do this, you will get a neat sharp corner like this. So I'm going to do the same for all the other three, as well. So now we have got a clean clip inside out surface of your project. Now let's quickly close this gap. Make sure you have folded the seams neatly like this. 3. Finishing and Conclusion: So now we have closed this gap. So let's form the organizer. So I'm going to hold this edge here and then slowly insert this inside this pocket like this. So now, if you notice, we have a clean, like a pouch, one side printed, and the other side solid fabric. Now it's time for us to make the base for this fabric organizer. So I'm going to quickly flip this add the base inside. Perfect. So for making the base here, we are going to pinch like a triangular shape over here like this from both the sides. Like this. So what we are going to do is this pinch triangular shape. We're going to hold it like this and make a stitch over here. Then again, make a stitch over here. So this will act as a base for our fabric organizer, and also it will enhance stability and strength to our fabric organizer. So for getting a cleaner version of base, we can go with the measurements. Make sure you have the base like this folder. And we can go with five centimeter. We can fold five centimeter like this. Top corner of the triangle is meeting the center line. So in this way, we'll get a cleaner base. Let's secure them with a pin. Again, similarly, measure five centimeter. Make sure this is matching exactly the center and secure them using a pin. Perfect. So let's go ahead and make stitches across these lines. Okay? So now we can remove the pins. And let's flip the box. Fabric organizer. Side up. Great. If you notice here, we have beautiful box shaped shape over here. It's form. So this will be our basic fabric organs. So now it's time for us to finish this fabric organizer with the beautiful top stitch. For that, I'm going to make a stitch over this edge, leaving again, ten MM C mallons. So this will ensure our uniform C mallons across our entire project. So it's very easy to follow and make the spots again and again, right? So let's go over this edge and make a top stitch. So for making that top stitch, you can remove the extension table of your sewing mission for easy access. Slowly, you can slide the fabric organizer over your sewing mission for a king stop. Touch. Now, if you see we have completed our fabric organizer. So let's do a final step. Let's for the top edge like this to add extra stability for a fabric organizer. You can make one food or you can even go with a double food as per your need. So now we have completed fabric organizer. We have used very simple sewing techniques for completing this entire project. And we just started with a rectangular shape of fabric. So you can imagine, this is the size we have got with 18 by 11 inch fabric piece. So you can choose and decide, adjust the fabric and the size according to your needs. I hope you have enjoyed this class and learned something new. I request you to share your picture of the fabric organizer that you have made and how you have used it in the project section, so others can get inspired and get creative. Thank you.
