decided to sew my arm caddy.
I have had the placements for
awhile to do this with so it could
be considered a UFO too!
I used two quilted placements
that cost around $3 .

Cut the placemat from
each end 6".

Cut the center into
3 pieces. I used the
quilting design to
determine where to
cut. I used the center
as the pincushion.
The other two
pieces will be used
later.

I zigzagged the cut
edges of the big
pieces for the
pockets.
edges of the big
pieces for the
pockets.

Sew rick rack or used
another trim to cover
the edges. I left an inch
to turn under when I
sew it on.

piece for the
pincushion and
sew around 3
sides leaving
the last open to
stuff and then
sew it closed.
I also sewed a 20"
piece of rickrack
to attach scissors
under one end.

I sewed rickrack
around the pincushion
and embroidered
flowers with french
knots and lazy daisies.
I made a yoyo flower with
two leaves and attached
with a button.
Sew the pockets on.

center piece in
half and zigzag
the edges.
Cut 2 pieces of
felt and place
in the center
between the
two pieces and
zigzag the back
edge making a
book for needles.

to sew and finish
a few more UFO's!
I hope you have
fun making one.
You can use the
back of the placemat
if you want more
of a contrast.
Happy sewing!.............Carlie
Now that is adorable.....
