Another Sewing Caddy

Look what I whipped up this weekend. I made another sewing caddy on Saturday afternoon. I made this for my future daughter-in-law for Christmas. She doesn't sew but I think a person could use this for a variety of things. I am going to fill the pockets up with little goodies so she will have to search the whole caddy for little surprises.
Some of you might remember this yellow milk glass cup and saucer I found at an antique store this summer. This will be going in the caddy too. You probably figured out that my soon to be DIL likes bright yellow.
So now I need to go shopping for more goodies.

With Passion,

    I love the caddy and yes, it could be used for many things other than sewing. And what a great idea to fill it with all kinds of neat things. What a thoughtful gift!

  20. I love the caddy, do you have a pattern or is it a tutorial somewhere?? Love the yellow tea cup also. Yellow was my favorite color growing up. I have a friend who says you need a little yellow in every room for sunshine.
