Tired of Playing Needle Roulette? Make Your Own Organizer!

Every sewist knows the frustration: you reach for the perfect needle, only to find loose packets, missing labels and several needles you can no longer identify. This practical, hands-on workshop will help you bring order to the confusion by sewing your own compact needle organizer.

The Sewing Companion You Didn’t Know You Needed

Your finished organizer folds neatly into a handy fabric wallet, making it easy to store at home or slip into your sewing bag for classes, quilt groups and retreats. Clear vinyl pockets keep your machine-needle packets visible and allow you to arrange them by type, size or purpose. A secure zipped section holds specialty packets and other small items, while a padded felt panel provides a safe, convenient home for your hand-sewing needles.

During the workshop, you will be guided step by step as you assemble and complete your organizer. A prepared kit containing the inside and outside fabrics, thin batting, binding, zip, buttons and vinyl plastic is supplied, so all the important materials work together beautifully.

You Sew, We’ll Handle the Rest

By the end of the workshop, you will leave with a completed organizer ready to put to work. No more digging through drawers, guessing which needle is which or finding sharp needles loose among your sewing supplies – just one attractive, practical place for both your machine and hand-sewing needles.

This adults-only workshop is suitable for confident beginners, intermediate and advanced sewists.
