Being a passenger on a long road trip is a prime opportunity to knock out a hand sewing project.  This car window sewing caddy can help keep your notions organized and within easy reach.  Aniva guest blogs at Gigi’s Thimble with a tutorial showing how you can make one.  The cup can hold scissors, seam ripper, and other tools, and a small pincushion on the front is the perfect place to  park pins and needles.  It has a suction cup to attach to a car window or other smooth surface.

Easy Cosmetics Bag Sewing Pattern

The bag is simple, uses very little fabric (about 2/3rds of a fat quarter), has no fussy inside pockets (although you can add your own if you like), and takes me well less than 30 minutes to print the pattern, cut out and sew. But quick and simple doesn’t mean it’s not awesome!

It’s the sort of bag that is versatile enough to be used for lots of applications, not just cosmetics and toiletries. Keep all your pens and pencils in order, use it for a small first aid kit for the car, keep it in your desk at work for a few headache pills and other personal supplies.

Make some for yourself, for gifts or to sell.
