Today’s feature is from The Mayfly with a car organizer how-to, a free sewing tutorial / pattern how to.

The things you’ll need: medium weight fabric, coordinating thread, a sewing machine, a piece of 3/4″ elastic about 30 inches long, and a messy car. Keep in mind, to make them like I did, your headrests need to be removable. If yours aren’t, you’ll have to get creative with the tops. When I say medium weight, I mean something thicker than say quilters cotton (so it hangs nicely) but thinner than denim (you’ll be sewing through multiple layers.) I used a gray twill so it would blend in with the car upholstery, but you could always use something bright to jazz up the back seat or use contrasting fabric or patchwork for the pockets.

The tutorial includes directions on how to measure (and what to measure) so you can fully customize the car organizer for your vehicle. The nice thing about making one of these for your vehicle is that you can fully customize the features.

Nice job!
