:) :) :) Mom asked me to make her a shoe organizer a long time ago and the other day I found a piece of fabric at Joanns and I bought it thinking I would use it in a bargello, but the fabric turned out to be duck cloth. So I had this plaid fabric and it is sort of a corduroy fabric and the duck cloth was perfect for the backing. I had a time of it because when I got the pockets done I found that pattern itself is a bit wonky. The back was 2" shorter on the sides so I had to piece it, but I got a pretty nice shoe organizer any ways. I made the billowed pockets, but did not edge stitch like I usually do because of the thickness of the fabric, I didn't need to. I sewed the pockets on and then put some single fold bias tape over the raw edges of the pockets and then after I got it all done, I birthed it like you would a baby quilt and then put some small grommets on it. I used a cropadile tool to do that with and it was great. I'm pleased with the out come of it. Huggies, Fay
