I wanted to make Hold Tite Folios for the other Sew Tites Showgirls. I knew when I bought the cork that I wanted to make them for the others. I didn’t get the task done in Portland, so I rushed to get them done the Sunday before I left for Houston for my second Sew Tites Showgirls Show of the year. It’s not that I have been putting it off; it just didn’t get done.
Now it is done. I made these a little differently than the pattern says. I have made a few using the pattern and felt comfortable revising it a little. Mostly, I didn’t want to interfere with the design of the cork by using binding. I got around that when I made the Hold Tite Folios for Sue and Carrie by using the same fabric. That wasn’t going to work this time.
I made a very small slip pocket, put the pieces of hardware inside and then, very carefully, sewed around the ‘slip pocket’ to close it up. After I was finished, I added the felt.
I am pleased with how they came out.
The pattern is free from the SewTites website. The hardware kit, which includes a copy of the pattern, is also available on the SewTites website. Not free, but reasonably priced. If you buy it at a show, it is possible that you can take advantage of a show special.
