I'm making some zipper bags today so while I have all my fabrics out I decided to make up some some kits. I have cut my fabric and batting to size,ironed down the edges and found a zipper that matches. Now I'll put each individual unsewn kit into a zip lock bag,the next time I want to sew these everything is ready to go. This idea would work for other projects you are making multiples of.

Bev I love the sound of your organisation. Have fun sewing out the zipper bags when you have the time

At Christmas time my stockpile of projects got almost deleted so now I shall build up another. I'll make it throw it in a drawer and when I need a small gift I'll say look what I made just for you.

This is what I do too - especially when I am preparing for a show. Works really well for me.

Bev, I like sewing in multiples too. I have a few applique projects ready and waiting for time at the sewing machine. In the meantime, I will do some embroidery.

Hi, yes I used that idea when I was making jewelery from beads. I never thought to use it on my sewing projects. What an excellent idea. Thanks for sharing it.

That's what I do for book covers and the like. Ideal when you don't have much time and need something done in a jiffy.

I've done that for quilting projects, too. It's super fast to stitch up when everything is gathered and ready to go. I've never thought of doing many at a time though for other projects. Thanks for the lightbulb moment.☺

Great idea, lots of time is spent pairing fabrics so if you have many to do even on mug rugs, it would be a great time saver. Thanks Bev!
