great idea I need one for when doing arm chair/hand work instead of using chair arm and kids to pickup/fetch my missing goodies

There is really nothing to it. You want the fabric to be big enough to go under your machine and hang down over your table far enough so you can turn up the bottom to make the pocket. Slap on some binding, turn up the bottom a few inches (depending what you want to put in it and sew the sides togetherThen I sewed a seam between the two pieces of fabric at the bottom wide enough for the different items to fit in. I also put a safety pin in the back of one of the slots to make it shorter for a small item so It wouldn't disappear in the pocket. Hope this helps, I don't know how to make a tutorial

That is really cute! I have a bunch of fat quarters, this looks like it might make a F/Q project!
