Materials needed:

2 Fat Quarters (these can be the same or different,

1 Fat Quarter of coordinating fabric for pocket 
18" x 17" batting

bias tape or make your own bias for the binding

Batting
Cut 1 piece - 10" x 17"
Cut 1 piece - 4?" x 17"

Sewing Instructions:

1.  Baste batting to one wrong side of fabric for A and B.  This will become your front.

2.  With right sides together of front pieces, stitch B to A along bottom edge of A.  It will look like this when stitched;

3.  Stitch together back pieces of A and B in the same way.  

4.  Baste Front to Back, wrong sides together, along edges.  At this time you can quilt as desired.  

Pocket:

5.  Using the coordinating fabric pieces, sandwich batting to wrong sides of pocket pieces.  Pin or baste on side edges.

6.  Sew bias tape to top edge of pocket, turn and stitch down so top edge is enclosed.  

7.  Baste or pin pocket to lower front.  

8.  Baste outer edges of organizer.  

9.  Encase all outer edges with bias tape.

10.  Determine how many pockets you would like in your organizer,  I made four.
