I love that one BellaBoo. I like the little organizer. I've never seen one made like that. Had to download that pattern. Thanks for the link.

I purchased a pattern for one that sounds like it is what you want. If you are interested I can get it and give you the information off the pattern. Mine has a covered bag filled with child's play sand..that is used for a pin cushion as well. The bag is held open with that 1" wide purchased --can't remember the name of it..but it keeps the bag open at all times.

I don't know how to give you this information. Do we give out private email address?

Duh..would help if I had read the other entries first. You were provided with a link that looks like mine..only my pattern has a larger bag..easily adjusted! Good luck. I love all the helpers on this site!

Oh, these look so useful, I'll have to make one for my mess of a machine. I've always got stuff piled everywhere.

pams and bellaboo.....

these are for sale at every show i was ever at. they cost from between $15 to $35, depending on where the show is and how close to closing time. they are great. they always have them on display, but of course never sell the pattern. i believe they are using plain sand for the filler. and of course you can't get the fabric choice you want. it certainly pays to do one yourself and show us a pic. btw, they use some kind of flat metal spring or something in the casing, but can't it be boning?

Boy, that made me laugh. :lol: I could just imagine going to the counter with an armful of these huge bras that obviously wouldn't fit me...
