Sew Simple with Rectangles & Squares Part Three on The Best of Sewing With Nancy
Incorporating specialty fabrics can add functionality when sewing gifts and projects. For example, try clear vinyl. This unique fabric is the star of the Sewing With Nancy program, Sew Simple with Rectangles & Squares—the third episode. Watch online. Here’s a preview of the projects that you’ll see Nancy Zieman demonstrate during the show.
Jewelry Caddies
Nancy begins this episode with a Jewelry Caddy duo, which fits all of the standards set for this show. The caddies use two sizes of fabric rectangles, specialty fabric (clear vinyl with a ribbon accent trim), and all the sewing is done with straight stitches. Best of all, the projects are attractive and very practical!
Portable Ironing Blanket
Use the same dimensions as the jewelry caddies plus Quilted Iron Quick fabric to make a portable mini-ironing blanket. Use it next to your sewing machine for quick presses. Or, create a larger ironing blanket, any size of your choice, with the same transportability. It could easily be used as an ironing board substitute or for travel. Either way, you can custom-make these projects easily with Nancy’s sew simple techniques.
Closet Organizer
How about adding extra storage to your home without assembling knock-down furniture or remodeling a closet? Create portable, compact closet organizers with double-sided quilted fabric, clear vinyl, and ribbon trim. It’s another straight-stitched project that can hang in full sight or hidden behind a closet door.

Great use of vinyl. Nancy’s sewing tip for the teflon foot substitute makes sewing with vinyl doable for every sewist!

I love the directions for the portable ironing mats.

The closet organizer would be great to make to organize shoes and the clear vinyl is perfect for this.
