The Bag Every Sewist Needs - Made By Your Own Hands

If you’ve ever arrived at a sewing workshop and spent the first few minutes digging through your bag for your seam ripper – or realized your scissors have migrated to the bottom under everything else, you’ll appreciate this workshop!

The Creative Caddy is the organizer sewists wish they’d had from the start. Roomy enough to hold your 8″ scissors, rotary cutter, marking pencils, seam ripper, extra needles, thread and snippers – with space to spare. Yet clever enough to moonlight as a cosmetics bag, school supply organizer, or bathroom caddy. Everything in its place, easy to find, ready to go – wherever you’re headed.

Meet the Creative Caddy

Three zippered pockets. Four open pockets. Two handles formed by a single clever zipper. It moves with you from your sewing room to the classroom to wherever creativity takes you.

What to Expect on the Day

This is a full-day, hands-on workshop for confident beginners through to advanced sewists. You’ll work through the construction step by step, with expert guidance throughout. The only thing you need to think about is your sewing tools – we take care of everything else.

Everything Is Included

Your kit will be ready to go — fabric, zips, bias binding and thread, all beautifully chosen and prepared for you. No shopping lists, no second-guessing, no last-minute fabric runs. Just arrive, set up your machine and sew!

Confident beginners through to advanced sewists. If you’re comfortable at your machine and ready to tackle zippers and structured bag construction, you’ll do brilliantly.
