Sewing pattern: Collapsible fabric storage box

I love to use collapsible storage bins to organize my drawers. They’re useful and I can store them flat when I don’t need them – but the plain white canvas isn’t that attractive. That’s fine if they’re in drawers, but what if they were made pretty enough to use on a your desk or in your craft room. Aunt Marti from Aunt Marti’s 52 Quilts shows how you can make your own collapsible fabric bin – and from charm squares, no less! The bright colors and prints are so much prettier than the plain canvas ones!
