A re-post from mom's blog - she is just sew creative - find her original post here.
This is such an easy
project for a child or a beginning sewer. I have been doing these for years and
have used them in the bedroom, bathroom, nursery and especially in my sewing
room. They make a wonderful gift and can be personalized very easily with appliqué
or embroidery.
Just find a good sturdy hanger and start with a piece of fabric
wide enough to cover the hanger width and long enough to make the rows of
pockets you want. My finished pocket is always dictated by how much fabric I
have. I have one that is only one row deep that I hang off the arm of my
recliner for my cell phone and TV remote. For the one in the picture above I
used a firm woven upholstery fabric left over from a remnant I used for a tote
bag a few years ago.(I am trying to reduce my stash! Really!)
This set of
pockets is for light weight things so I did not even line it at all. I bound
the edges with my quilt binder that attaches to my machine. You could just hem
the edges as well. After I placed the folds for the pocket rows I just turned
the bottom under and sewed the rows in place down the edges and across the
pockets before finishing the edges.
