Jenny's January Challenge

the challenge this month was to make something useful out of a teatowel.i specifically made this for my Ikea daybed. it's where i watch t.v. do hand-sewing. and my knitting. lots of bed pillows make it comfy. but also create places for little things to get lost. if only for just a few minutes.i used 2 teatowels to make my organizer and it has 12 very useful pockets.

Very nice. I love that idea.

Very cute and so appropriate for upcoming Valentine's Day although I think hearts are appropriate for any occasion.

Brill idea Karen. I wish sofas would come with something like that as I have to rely on a little side table by ours when I'm hand sewing downstairs and it always looks messy.
