Mail Organizer

A long time ago I bought a book called One Yard Wonders and planned to make everything in it as soon as I got it.  However, I ended up getting a job in Okie so that did not happen.  Since moving to South Texas I have gotten back into learning how to sew.  My friend Emily made these mail organizers from the book back in the fall and I thought they were a great idea to have to keep the papers off of the counter. I don't want to violate any copyright laws here so I will just tell you the basics of the project.



You need:

-One yard of fabric.

- Cut eight 13X11 inch sections out of the fabric.

- Sew two together with right sides together but just sew the two short sides and one long side. (Do this four times)

- Turn one right side out and put another inside of it with wrong sides together.

- Fold down the top, raw edge and top stitch.

- Add loops for hanging as desired.  I used two short straps with D rings attached.
