We are delighted to tell you more about our new pattern, Cubicle Collective!

Containing a dozen projects, it's one of our most versatile patterns yet!

Find the pattern here!

Featured fabric, at left, is Prince Charming Deja Vu by Tula Pink for FreeSpirit Fabrics.





Fun and easy to make, Cubicle Collective contains twelve projects that offer so many stylish ways to organize.

Featured fabric, at left and below, is PUNC*T by e bond for FreeSpirit Fabrics.


The pattern includes instructions for two styles of bag (rectangle and square), each in three sizes. Each bag features a side-to-side zipper that allows the bag to open fully into a tray. Snap the sides of the bag together and enjoy a clear view of the contents. It's so easy to find exactly what you need!

These versatile bags are perfect for organizing sewing notions, craft tools, cosmetics, travel items, and more.

But Cubicle Collective offers even more creative value!

During construction of the bags, quilted fabric is trimmed away — and those pieces can be transformed into coordinating snap cases. These cases are quick and easy to make, and you can create several useful sizes.


Perfect for cords, small tools, cosmetics, and other essentials, the snap cases turn leftover quilted fabric into practical accessories you’ll use again and again.

Make a colorful coordinating set or mix favorite prints to create a collection that adds personality to any space.


Cubicle Collective combines playful design, practical storage, and clever use of fabric for a project you’ll enjoy making and using.

  • TESTER: Nyree G.
  • FABRIC: Panels purchased at Michelle's Patchwork and Art in Australia
  • MODIFICATIONS: "For the Square Bag and the Rectangular Bag (both medium), I switched the main and lining fabrics between the two bags. Also, I did not use a coordinating fabric at all. For the handle and tab, I used main fabric. For the bias binding, I used lining fabric."
