I spent about 45 minutes looking for a pattern for this very item and I should have come to the board first. Thank you so much for sharing your talents, it is going to the top of the projects list.

I also attached one to my sewing machine table with double sided sticky tape. I also use scraps of my warm and natural batting on my swifter. Use both sides, and then discard.

Pictures first so you know what I am talking about, Then I will give you the directions.

Please bare with me I have at least 7 pictures before I give the tutorial


I use these also with all my hand sewing...keep them in sewing machine case also....they come in handy. GF uses her embroidery machine with "threads go here" on the front, really cute.
