Minikins Hildegard's Notion Trunk

Here’s a closer look at Hildegard’s Notion Organizer from Minikins Season Four. This pattern is exclusively part of the bundle. I love this organizer for stowing knitting, sewing supplies, just about anything you can think of! The pocket in front has elastics to hold pens or other tools, and the rigid dividers on the inside are removable thanks to Velcro (hook and loop)!

Finished Size: 12-3/4” long x 6” tall x 5-3/4” deep (32cm x 15cm x 15cm)

The bundle includes the pdf patterns and videos to make all 12 projects.

Each pdf pattern includes sewing instructions, complete with step-by-step color photos. Also included in the PDF pattern are printable pattern pieces for your home printer. The following files will all be included with your PDF pattern purchase:

SVG Files (for electric cutting machines, such as the Brother Scan N Cut and the Cricut Maker)
Projector Files (for use with home projectors for cutting out fabric; please see the group Projectors for Sewing for more information)
A0 Files (large-format 33″ x 46″ pattern page for printing at your local copy shop, in case you would rather not tape together the pattern pages that are included in the PDF pattern)
