I love how Karen from Sew Many Ways’ brain works! She has a knack for re-seeing common household objects and hardware items as craft supplies or organizational tools. Her latest shows how to make a car sewing caddy out of a suction cup soap holder like you’d use in a kitchen sink. The small wire basket will hold your small sewing notions, and the suction cups will attach it to your window so it stays within easy reach. Go to Sew Many Ways to see how to make it. She also gives links to previous car sewing caddies she’s made out of other common household items, so be sure to scroll all the way down to see those, too.
