Taming Clutter with In Control Caddy


Taming the Clutter with the “In Control” Caddy byAnnie

As soon as I came across the In Control caddy pattern byAnnie, I knew it was just what I needed. Designed with function and style in mind, it’s the perfect solution for keeping all those little sewing supplies tidy—whether at your home sewing station or packed up for a sewing retreat.

This clever caddy is a must-have for sewing room organization. It features five outer slip pockets, offering easy access to your most-used tools like scissors, seam rippers, markers, and more. On one end, a zippered pocket provides a secure place for personal items like your phone, keys, or earbuds.

Inside, the thoughtful design continues with expandable dividers that help sort supplies but can also collapse flat, giving you a wide-open interior when needed. The compact but roomy size—6½" high x 10½" wide x 6" deep—fits perfectly beside your sewing machine without taking up too much space.

I loved making this project and found the instructions clear and beginner-friendly, like most byAnnie patterns. Whether you're staying organized at a retreat or just tired of chasing your tools around your table, the In Control caddy lives up to its name.
