Free pattern: Hanging shoe organizer

August 20, 2014 by Anne Weaver

Free pattern: Hanging shoe organizer

Free pattern: Hanging shoe organizer

Mary Beth from RetroMonkeys shares a free pattern at the Pattern Patter blog for making this hanging shoe organizer.  The fabric organizer fits over a clothes hanger and has 16 pleated pockets to hold your shoes.  You don’t have to store just shoes in it, either.  I have a friend who uses one of these to sort her smallest fabric scraps and store her most-used sewing notions.  With pockets made from a clear vinyl, you could easily see the contents.  This pattern was originally published in a 1952 Workbasket Magazine.  Follow the link below to get the pattern:

    I love shoe bags I hang one with clear vinyl pockets on the inside of my coat closet door to store gloves, scarves, hats, even the dog leash and flashlight go into pockets.

    I also have one on the back of my craft/office/storage room door and the bathroom door too.

    Thanks for featuring this free pattern. I think I’ll use it to make a storage hanger for my nephew who will be moving into his dorm soon. Put some spare supplies and snacks in the bag. I just love patterns for storage organizers! Especially when they’re free
