Thread Catcher

Image may contain: plant

I should be wrapping gifts, baking or cleaning but I ended up making a thread catcher instead! I found the pattern online awhile ago and found it in my sewing room. I thought it would be a fun quick project. I didn't have time for anything too involved!

I sewed each half of the body to the bottom.

I added batting and made a grid as my quilting pattern.  I just used my regular sewing machine. I was keeping things nice and easy!

I sewed up the sides and boxed the corners. I added a narrow contrasting fabric strip to the top.

I prepared my lining. These are all leftover Kaffe Fassett fabrics. I love them!

I sewed everything right sides together. I left an opening in the lining and this is what I pulled out! Voila! My new thread catcher!

Back to preparing for the holiday. I think I have a love/hate relationship with the holidays.
