So now that September has arrived, here's a little something different for those of you who are in the fall-cleaning/closet-purging/file-organizing mood!  I made one of these organizers for myself a year ago as a solution to the piles of patterns I had lying around my sewing studio.  It turned out so well that I ended up making of bunch of them to give away as Christmas gifts.  I've been meaning to make a DIY video of it for awhile, and here it is!  There's no pattern required - the video provides simple step-by-step instructions, as well as the measurements of all fabric pieces needed.

To get started, you'll need a few supplies:

• 1 meter (1.1 yards) of home decor fabric (140 cm/55 inches wide)
• matching thread
• rotary cutter & cutting mat, or scissors
• 13 inch piece of a wooden dowel, 0.5 inch diameter
• pins
• sewing machine
• iron
