Thanks so much for this great idea, my sewing room has never been tidier! One thing I have changed is to use some scrap vinyl to make the back and the inner basket. This means that all scraps and cottons just slide in really easily and can be emptied without anything sticking to the sides. It’s so lovely my whole sewing group now have made at least one, sometimes two so each machine/serger has its own! Thanks again!

Mine does not move at all. The weight keeps it still. You could always use a gripper fabric like something you’d use on slippers if it needs a little added stability.

The basket is the 11 x14 and the backing is the 18 x 9.5 , Not sure why she hasn't gone back and changed it or made corrections on this video or the pattern that there is a link too....lol I wasted alot of interfacing making it the first time...until I went back and made a correct version using the 11 x 14 as the basket measurements and the 18 x 9.5 as the backing...Good Luck

Marietta, I just followed the video and the written pattern too, all to find out what you've stated above. I am just going to make my backing piece longer to accommodate the "18" x 9.5" basket" that I've already created that looks really nice😂

Hi Marietta, Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I will take a look at the pattern and get that updated. I’ve been struck with covid so I just saw your comments and emails today. Surprisingly no one has brought this to my attention in all the time since the video posted. 😳 Even my testers seem to have missed it or failed to tell me.

I think this is great. Can I ask where does the cardboard sit? Is it under the machine or is it the catcher please

@TheLiterarySewist 2 жыл бұрын

Yep! It sits under the machine for stability. You could skip it if you wanted but to me the cardboard helps keep things steady and absorbs vibrations.

The dimensions are flipped. The backing is supposed to be 18×9.5 and the basket is supposed to be 11×14. Just a heads up because the pattern never got corrected.

I must be doing something wrong....Are we sure the basket is the 18x9.5 measurements. and not the 11x14?? I am in the process of making this and using the 18x9.5 as the basket and the 11x14 as the backing and its not working out at all.

So when sewing the basket exterior as directed. I am assuming you ask make the interior of the basket the same before lining them up. Correct? Pretty much repeating steps 2 through 8 twice?

@@kimberlymelendez7667 It goes in at the top part that sits under the machine. You could double interface it and skip the cardboard. Or cut down a thin cutting mat. Like the cheap ones that roll up. I’ve seen them at the dollar store so it would be a cheap solution.

I am trying to make the shallower version and the backing measurements are incorrect. It should be more like 8 x 18 or 19 depending on your serger. At 15 inches that only gives less than 4 inches to go under the serger. Maybe you could revisit the PDF and review the shallower version measurements. I’m not even sure I have the 8 inch measurement correct but I do know 5 x 15 is way too narrow and way too short. I haven’t tried the full size basket and I think I have the updated PDF. Please let me know your thoughts on the backing size for the shallower version. I’m trying to make this for a Christmas gift and now I’m stuck. Thanks for your time and willingness to share.
