Using An Old Jeans: Learn How To Make A Bedside Pocket Organizer

This is a super quick and easy project, and I think it looks pretty cute when it’s finished!

Materials Needed

– Pack pockets – Fabric strip – Ribbon – Fabric Scraps – Iron

Cut Out Your Pockets

Sew Pockets Together

Sew Pockets Together

Line them up right sides together, trim edges so that the surrounding denim is the same length and sew.

Next, find a strip of fabric that is the same width across as your finished pocket panel and about 5-6 high.

Interfacing

If you want your bedside pocket organizer to be functional you need to give it some stability. This is what the interfacing is for.

I cut out one piece for each organizer I was making. I cut it approximately 1 smaller all the way around than my full bedside pocket organizer front panel.
