Remote control caddy

I started out today attempting to draft a pattern.I had visited a blog that has a sewing project of running each month &  found her to be very enticing .

This month it is arm chair caddy.  Most of them are sewing caddies for those people who sew and stick your pins in the chair arm. I do not know any people who do hand sewing -but I decided it would be a perfect start to Christmas presents by turning it into a tv remote caddy.

I wanted some kind of stabilizer -so I substituted some denim that I had scraps left over from some pants . Having storage for scraps is tough, but I do try. I have a plastic bag that I have them in right now - Yea- I know -really high tech isn't it??? LOL

 It is amazing how much time you can put into even the smallest project- but , it is a neat feeling to lose yourself into one!

It took all afternoon to complete it. I am not satisfied with it , but it will work for now. Maybe if I sleep on it my brain will figure out what I need to do now.

Talk about sleep - now that it is bed time I need to go feed the stove , BUT - I just peeked out the door and we have a good inch of fluffy snow everywhere. Talk about a sneak attack!!!!!!!!!!!!   : )
