Storage Box for Patterns and Fat Quarters

It is nice to have a place for everything, even our patterns. Make a storage box in your own fabric to keep your patterns in or in my case my Fat Quater Club fabric packs.

Yours are the prettiest boxes I’ve seen so far. They look professionally made, and are completely lined.

[@stacyhanson1271]

This is the prettiest storage box I've ever seen! TY

[@sharonwilliams1319]

You Never Fail to amaze me, brilliant idea. Not to mention that fabric is breathtaking.

[@elementgypsy]

This is a good way! I like your other boxes as well. Thank you. I always learn something and love your instructions.

[@vickiserre9457]

This will be a very fun winter project. Thank you for a great Video, even a beginner can follow.

[@pamelaburdick8366]

I have been looking for a box for my patterns for awhile, thank you for this tutorial!

[@kschallert3569]

You're amazing. This box is so classy and so beautiful! Thank you for the tutorial!

[@lindagriffith8041]

You hav3 the best tutorials. Very thorough

[@pgklowak]

Great project. Wonderful clear instructions

[@faeryfox6253]

I know this was a long time ago but I have observed over time that (does this reveal a little of your magic?) you select such lovely fabrics. I guess it's safe to say "Lady, you have good taste".

[@marieacuna2207]

Beautifully done. 🤗

[@trinaclark1710]

So cute. I can't wait to try making the fabric covered box. Thanks for sharing this video

[@cc83jc85]

I'd forgotten about this video- thank you, I will try it out, and I have all what I need at home already

[@barbaradelarwelle7280]

Laura you are so creative!! Thank you so much for this great tutorial.

[@anethawylie4357]

Laura, you have the BEST video's

[@IAMRETIRED10]

Very nicely done, and explained.

[@GiromondoItalian]

Very clear!! Thank you so much

[@DenisJava]

How wonderful! I"m looking for a good storage box for my many patterns. I might just use this method to make my own. Thanks for the tutorial.

[@leal536]

I need to get busy! I see 3 holiday gifts for my 3 sisters.

[@denisepineda1788]

Great idea. With all the Amazon orders I get, I always have plenty of cardboard I can recycle!

[@MolecularMachine]

I love how no-frills this tutorial is. You know exactly how much to explain, no more, no less.

[@robynirwin7138]

Just what i need. Thanks Laura.

[@poonamsadija7691]

Waw! Sach a nice talent 🌹

[@katiemacb3249]

I love this box, your video is so helpful! But I think I'd have to make the lid first because it would just kill me to have to wait a day for the glue to dry!!! Lol!

[@cowbird51]

Her glue stick only took 10 minutes to dry!

[@peace102]

I enjoyed this. YOU are a favorite of mine to learn from since I started sewing. Thank you for your amazing teaching style. I couldn't be as fabulous with my creations without following and learning from you. I wish I would have done this project an inch wider as many of my patterns are a bit wider to the finished product, but it's beautiful and I may just try another one and use this one for something else, and too, to practice whip stitching. Perhaps this will give me an opportunity to try Annie's Club for a perfect fit. I think I pulled my whip stitching a little to tight as I wasn't sure how sturdy it would be ... I now know it may look delicate but it's perfect. I love the fabric you used but cannot find it anywhere. Beautiful. Thank you and have the BEST day!

[@MrVjay70]

Very nice Laura!!!!

[@MsReed58]

Love this!

[@danib.8475]

super Idea. I love your Videos and your Idea´s

[@kathryncooper4001]

WOW! Decorating my sewing room has been a year-long project, and it's only half done. I think a dozen of these boxes on all my shelves will make a nice, coordinated change from the look of clear plastic storage containers, so I'll be using them for much more than just patterns. Thanks for another great, very useful video.

[@ThePrincessmorbid]

Awesome project. New mic? Sounds great! Thanks again!

[@SewVeryEasy]

Thank you and yes, at last:)

[@adhiliyascreatedbyshirin55]

Hellooo... Ma'am.. 😍😍 I am from India... I like your fabrics.. I Want it.. But is it possible..??? 😒

[@moniquemartel1]

Merci!!!!Pour ce beaux projet

[@marymote8951]

thank you for another idea

[@margaret-mary499]

Great video👍

[@tsylvesteahfat1801]

Love it. Can you do another size of boxes and does that mean all 4 sides should be same size? Thank you.

[@SewVeryEasy]

the bottom size will set the side sizes. But you can always go as high or low as you want :)

[@hannahcrumley3103]

Great idea! I just made a similar box to sit inside a hand bag. It’s a narrow rectangle about 12”L x 6”W x 8”H. I was tired of everything tumbling around inside it- it keeps all my contents organized. I think I’m going to use some of your ideas to make a more attractive organizer with several fabrics and some pockets inside it too- you’ve inspired me to improve it!

[@cathygagnon9153]

Oh my! I love this idea and tutorial. Absolutely beautiful boxes, perfect for my sewing/craft room. Thank you for doing this tutorial!

[@jacksparrowarrrr]

Honey, your nails look absolutely fabulous!! 🤍

[@deborahhumphrey1359]

Love that fabric. I used mine to make the placemats you did in another video

[@Bevaboo]

Do you think I could make this box using headliner foam (which is fairly thin) instead of fleece and cardboard? I was thinking cut pieces of headliner in the size of the cardboard pieces to substitute foam for the fleece combo for each part of the box. It would obviously be softer, but I don't see why it couldn't be done. (I was thinking of using this pattern for knickknack storage boxes of various sizes for my teenage niece. Am I missing a good reason not to, which is entirely possible, or do you think it might work?

[@SewVeryEasy]

I don't see why not, give it a try and let me know what it's like 😃

[@karengardiner75]

Love this Tutorial. Thanks for Sharing

[@ruthelizabethmary6482]

Super

[@lindathompson389]

Don’t you just love, love, love how we’re using glue now as “basting”. ?

[@grandmalovesmebest]

Linda Thompson YESSSS!!!

[@giaannstdenis3661]

I appreciate your editorial skill. No unnecessary and tedious demonstrations. All your instructions were very clear. Thank you!

[@sunflowergamesworld2817]

This is neat and beautiful storage box

[@lindar1502]

I’ve just started collecting lace. Have you heard of fabric covered lace cards, they are suppose to be 2 cards whip stitched like you did the box. I would love to see your idea on it!

[@SewVeryEasy]

no I have not, but I will look into it :) thanks

[@lindar1502]

❤️

[@pennyleibold1138]

I love this idea & very new to sewing, patterns but you break everything down so simple. I'm really tired looking for a patterned box out if the store: I always miss the sale, plus I want it all match. I thank you & just subscribed to your channel.

[@katherinemoore6937]

I love your style. It's so elegant. Your tutorials are very easy to follow and your craft ideas always work out perfectly. Great tutorial.

[@olgaartavia9420]

Bellisimo gracias

[@ss2short]

This is such a great idea. I’d like to make them a bit longer to store patterns on a bookshelf. Probably add something on front for tags to document contents

[@eyeonart6865]

That is real pretty but I buy containers at the dollar tree to hold my fabrics 11x8 for a dollar.

[@felixmbayi9813]

you are a beautiful woman in the wolrd thanks for your all videos

[@maggiemae987]

I just love your tutorials! You make me feel like I can do anything. You break things down and explain everything so well. Every time I watch one I go to get the stuff so I can do it along with you but it never fails there will be one thing I don’t have. Living on disability it’s taking me time to get my sewing supplies stocked. I did get a new sewing machine! My birthday is at the end of the month so he bought me one as a gift, it’s an Emerald 118. I wanted a very basic one. Anyway, thank you so much! You’re a great instructor and have such a sweet gentle way about you. You’re just such a joy that I’m able to bring into my life. God Bless

[@patriciamcgarr3183]

I too am on a budget for sewing. Check out resale or goodwill in January where quilters/sewer s are purging their supplies. Good luck

[@jordansmithson9602]

Great project!

[@ingridsenden-ns2wl]

zo great

[@Wanda6308]

I am concerned with using the glue as when I do it always gums up my sewing machine, so I guess I would have to hand sew it, but I love the project. thank you

[@karenwescott2615]

You always do such a great job with clear instructions and visual demonstrations! I love your tutorials!!! Thank you so much for you time, talents and efforts!!!

[@denisecollette7978]

I have recently found your channel and I am enjoying watching and using all your tips! Would you please tell me what glue you are using or recommend for the fabric boxes.. Thank you!!

[@cherrykuebler9210]

I can’t find the material list and written instructions…are they available? Am I not looking in the right place.

[@beesvalbeesval3826]

Yes, thanks, teacher. I'm going to do this for my sewing room.

[@yoyodamom1]

Thanx sew much....love your voice and tutorials!

[@terilooney]

That quilt behind you is breathtaking!

[@bellaswan1459]

This is going to sound stupid but what size is this total as if using one fabric only. I want to make it for my socks but I can't figure out the size.

[@helenwhitcomb7524]

I want to get the pattern of the quilt that’s on Laura’s wall but I don’t know how to can you send me a phone number. The quilt is the red & white one

[@Ione1916]

What glue do you use?

[@daneldawilson4764]

I use a small flat iron to heat press my small projects. Try it on your lid glue

[@londonthompson9730]

🤗This is P E R F E C T for the DIY mud closet bamboo cubby stand I'll be making!! It will be an odd size and the store bins will not fit 🤦 Your bins will also fill the closet overhead shelf 😏😝 Now, what fabric to use🤔🤣 Thank You for sharing 🙆😉🤣

[@hajiatawaolanrewaju8498]

Grateful for your consistent help to make us better seam mistress. I reside in Africa, Nigeria to be precise. Pls, I would love to be able to purchase the Fat Quarter collections every month and also love to be a member of the Fat Quarter's Club. How can I go about this? Many thanks in advance.

[@SewVeryEasy]

please contact them and see what they can do :)

[@mrogers2345]

Great Idea 💡!! I will probably use sew in foam for mine, add a false bottom and go from their. Thank You for sharing 😀

[@grandmalovesmebest]

Michelle R UGH! I've never been able to get the cardboard cut right. My boxes are always wonky, but, I keep trying!

[@carolpearce7755]

Wonderful idea! Your instructions are ALWAYS so clear. Thanks for sharing. Also ---- you "gift wrap" so beautifully - may I send my Christmas gifts to you to wrap? LOL Hugs, Carol

[@SewVeryEasy]

thanks :) lol

[@grandmalovesmebest]

Carol Pearce I know, right? Why does she never get glue everywhere and why are her projects always so incredibly neat? It is a mystery.🙄

[@LovinLife-pv7op]

Good, useful idea and GORGEOUS fabric! I'll have to check out Annies. Thank you,

[@beatricea6337]

Loved how this all came together, such an easy to follow tutorial. Once again great job. I will attempt to sew this box together. Thank you for sharing. 🌷🌻👍😉 😀👍

[@curtriceennis2924]

I really enjoyed watching this tutorial. Who knew how easy it was to make a fabric box. I wanna make so many of these for my sewing/craft materials. TYSM for sharing this video with us.

[@dulcilass]

I've done something like this for several years now. But instead of my lovely fabric, I use cardboard for the box and then covered the box with contact paper. Kleenex boxes can make a quick holder for fat quarters. Most of the kleenex boxes I get now don't have printing on the sides, so the decorative prints on sides the boxes can be quite attractive while the printed bottom is on the bottom.

[@dorothyuntch2048]

I watched your video on making a pattern box. Is there a written pattern? If so, how can I find it? Thanks

[@carolcurtis2220]

It is so much nicer to watch a tutorial from someone with beautifully manicured and painted nails. Thank you.

[@maryreed1124]

Carol Curtis actually I’m the opposite. I like when my teacher is as busy and frazzled as I am...who has to squeeze out precious moments for crafting and not worry about luxuries like manicures 🙂

[@carolcurtis2220]

My beef is that so often the "teacher" has badly manicured or bitten nails, which detract from the demonstration for me

[@cherrykuebler9210]

I was an educator for Creative Nail Design years ago, now called CND. We were taught that nails were ‘polished’, not painted. The way to remember the terminology was - you paint a barn, you polish nails…Not trying to be bossy. Just FYI However I do love to see a beautiful manicure. I love her videos!

[@donnarichey144]

I thought you were going to do a video every tuesday to learn about sewing or something, I only saw the first one. Thank you for your videos

[@SewVeryEasy]

I hope you saw today video. It was part 2 The videos will be on the first Tuesday of each month

[@SewVeryEasy]

thank you :)

[@deborahfite5192]

where did you get the exacto knife?

[@jasmineelfiky1410]

Lovely , I need to do some for my crafts too

[@donnabailey947]

I used to have a nail polish just about that color called Chili bean. Wish I could find it now.

[@jacquiphillips2462]

You are a very professional presenter and explain the instructions clearly. Thank you.

[@elizabethvallely4044]

WOW Awesome! Just what I am looking for for my pattern’s thank you so much! Thanks for sharing hugs Liz x

[@rosyclaire]

So each very small box cost approx $30? No thank you!

[@alletasmith2639]

Hi Laura, I like this video and thank you for sharing. Now I need a box about the same size but, I need one of the long sides to be the top. I think the fat quarters that you buy from Walmart’s and some of the fabric stores will fit in it. Will you please do a video on one like that? Thanks

[@patriciamcgarr3183]

Just what I needed for fat quarters and quilt/sewing patterns. Thank you!

[@nancycrosson6644]

I am not able to order from South Africa. Wish I could cause I love your material.

[@janhulse9518]

COULD i USE A MORE ORGANIC FUSIBLE PIECE?? INSTEAD OF FLEESE?

[@SewVeryEasy]

You sure can, but just keep in mind that it might be a little softer. And that's okay too

[@maha9119]

حلوة الفكرة

[@darlenepalmer9837]

Nice finished box. What a great job you did and a great tutorial. Thank you.

[@grandmalovesmebest]

Remember when fabric boxes used to be 99 cents at Joann's? I wonder what this box will cost when it is done? Your box is beautiful. You do very nice videos. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@54gravi]

Laura, you Totally Rock! Thank you!

Thanks for the great tutorial on the whip stitch! :)

[@klthomas9816]

If you could show us how to sew a collapsible storage box I would love it!

[@84lisa]

I'm new to the channel and I was wondering what the glue stick you used? Or the make of it so I can search for a similar product in the UK. Thank you

[@SewVeryEasy]

you can use any glue stick that is washable. which means it washes out after

[@taherasarola3952]
