Monday Made it... BTS
I am so excited to be able to team up with 4th Grade Frolics for Monday Made it! I have wanted to but have not had anything to make... Crazy I know! Well now I do and I can not believe I never thought of this before!! Ok so if I could get in my classroom I would take a pic of all the pocket charts I have due to my endless quest for THE perfect pocket chart. They are too long, too short, too wide, not wide enough, the pockets were to short/tall.... You get the picture It's cra-cray y'all!! The one day last week I can't even remember how/what I was reading some teacher was looking for a pocket chart and another chimed in that she makes them. I though cool!! I need to go find her Etsy store. Then as I really started thinking I was like I CAN DO THAT!!! I started thinking about it and sketching out what I have really been wanting and I DID IT!! LOOK!
I mostly have done baby blankets and curtains in the past... Easy to hide my bad sewing skills. I honestly ripped and redid more stitches on this than any other project in the past. But I love how it turn out! The Perfect Pocket!! I tried to capture the steps as I went.
Not bad for a first try if I do say so myself! I already have ideas to improve and I am thinking of making and selling them. What do you think? Would you have an intrest?

Your pocket chart is amazing! I know many teachers would like charts to match their classroom décor.
