How to Sew a Secret Pockets Hanger Cover to Save Time and Valuables


Easy Sewing ProjectWe all have little hiding places for our small treasures or cash. Here is one way to have several things in one spot and hidden away from view. Shhh!

You can also use these organizers for accessories like scarves and jewelry by outfit, especially when you travel or at night. What a great way to save time pulling yourself together in the morning.

Supplies Needed:
• 1 Padded hanger
• ¾ yard of 45-inch wide cotton print fabric (a dark print is best so the pockets aren’t obvious)
• ¾ yard of medium weight fusible pellon (fusible on one side)
• ⅛ yard of ribbon – optional
• Hem tape - optional
• Sewing machine and matching thread
• Needle and matching thread
• Iron
• Six ⅝-inch Velcro dot sets (black or white)
• Fabric glue
• Hanger cover and pocket templates
• Paper to make patterns

Here are the complete instructions for the secret pocket hanger cover.
