Trying to figure out what to give a sister that has everything… I made her and her husband a little something she could fit between her mattress and box spring. It holds 2 magazines on each side as well as her glasses, ipod, tissues, paper pens, remote control, even a flashlight if needed. This was super easy to make after a lot of planning. I am not sure what I enjoy more about making these goodies, the planning and figuring out how it will all come together or the fabrics or the actual sewing??? I took the width of their mattress and added 24 inches to each side. Sewed up an 18” fabric band. Folded up the ends to make the pockets and stitched the seams to finish it off. This would even be fun to make for a college student… If you are interested in more detailed how to let me know and I will make one. Christmas countdown…
