Some Finished Christmas Gifts
 

Made these ironing board caddies for some quilting buddies. Each end is weighted. One end has "trash" pocket and the other end has pocket with three divisions for ripper, etc. Each has a coordinating pincushion.

What a cool idea!!! Sew creative. Maybe some day (after Christmas :D ) you could post a tutorial. They all look very pretty.

Your caddy would definitely be a great place to store a glue stick and lots of other things we use at the ironing board. Thanks for posting your creativity.

I love this idea. Way to go!

Great idea. Look forward to see a tutorial if you do one. BrendaK

Well, now, aint that something! Those are so neat! Thanks for sharing!

nicely done and great idea

Those are so pretty, and yes a tutorial would be great. I would love to get one of these from someone so your quilting buddies will be very happy with these. Great Job! Very creative, and they will be so useful. :)

I dearly love practical gifts that are truly functional. This one is a real winner! I could see how it would work great while pressing and working on our quilting projects. Each one has a different personality to the fabrics. Great idea and pretty finish on them you clever girl!

So neat!! I second the request for a tute! Love them all but the cat one is my favorite....where did you find that darling cat fabric?

Very pretty and useful.

Can I see one with the ironing board? Can't picture it in my head (sorry I'm a very visual person).

Very creative:) I, too, would like it if you posted a tutorial. They would make wonderful gifts for quilty friends. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice gifts.

Really cute idea!

Great idea. Hope you do the tute. Thanks for sharing.

I found it on Pinterest, ironing board quilting caddy ... free pattern at TipNut.com. This is certainly a doable project, And, I too would love to recieve one!

I went to tipnut.com------ more stuff to make than I ever imagined, but could not find your lovely ironing board caddy.......hint as to where on that site.....thanx

I need one of these. I have thought of doing something like this to hang on the wall by the ironing board.

Thank you for this and for reminding me of Tip Nut. I use to get her newsletter all the time.

A great gift.

That cat fabric was from my stash. Bought a few years ago and made a FQ bag for my sister who is a "crazy cat lady". My cousin, who that caddy is for, also is a cat lover.

I did a search for 'ironing board caddy' and it came up.

I love this. You are very creative.

They are adorable! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks to to those who have shared more eye candy sites. My bucket list is growing by leaps and bounds.

Super Clever!!!!!

Great job!!!!!

Great idea! Love how different they all look.

Now that is what I call the perfect gift. Pretty and practical. A tutorial would be great.

They look great! If you post the tute right after Christmas, I might get some done before next Christmas. haha

great idea they look very nice!

I used a pattern downloaded from Cotton Way by Bonnie Olaveson www.cottonway.com. It is #968, Ironing Board Organizer. You can find a picture of it on an actual ironing board, which looks a little different than the flat on the floor pictures I posted. I did not include the ribbon and scissors on those that I made.

Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah to those that celebrate.
