    This is called the Pocket Canister, a pattern that I bought at a quilt show last year and finally got around to it. It needs a very large tin can which was donated by a friend. It's really very handy and a fun in between project.

    Ha! I have this pattern, and my daughter and I are going to make one today! One of the ladies I quilt with just gave her a bunch of basic sewing tools, so she needs a place to put them. Another lady gave her a fat quarter to use for part of her bucket. I think she'll like it when we finish. :) Yours turned out really nice. I like the ric-rac. We might steal that from ya!

    Have fun with it, it really is quite a handy little organizer. Be sure to post a picture when you're done.

    Love your color choices. I do these on Planters Mixed Nut cans from Sam's Club, and anything else I can find that is big enough to hold a bunch of necessary clutter around the machine. I know you will love it
