    Default Looking for clothes hanger cover pattern

    Looking for a pattern for clothes hanger covers--- the kind that is placed over to cover the clothes and also the kind that has a zipper in it to hide money, etc. Anyone know where or what site I can find them? Thought they would make good Christmas gifts.

    OK, I confess, I have made these in the past to coordinate my closet and bedroom. LOL, I would not do it again. But what I did is lay a coat hanger down on fabric, all a couple of inches all around and then sew. (Hangers really are different sizes depending on what they are made out of.) Make sire you leave a small opening for the hook part. You can make them as long as you want. The full length of a ball gown or short, just enough to keep dust off shoulders. You can also add decorative touches, buttons, lace ribbon etc. Hope that helps.

    I never thought of this -- duh! Thanks for the brain thump.

    Good Old Days store has one for sale. I printed the page so I would have a picture to go by. Looks like you can use the pattern from aspoonfulofsugardesigns and just lengthen it. There is a zipper in the front to hold all your treasures. It's called a closet safe hanger. Make a nice gift too. Especially when traveling.
