Two small, useful projects come from one beginner-friendly pattern: a quilted mini mat and a soft, structured trinket tray, each in three sizes. The mats protect a surface or set out a mug or snack, and the side-fold trays corral sewing supplies, jewelry, or small treasures without any complicated steps. Both sew up fast from small amounts of fabric, which makes them an easy way to use cherished scraps and fat quarters. What the Pattern Includes This listing is for the printed paper pattern, which comes with three pieces of ByAnnie's Soft and Stable, enough to make three projects. Fabric, binding, and thread are not included. Tidy Time is part of ByAnnie's Jump Starters series. A coupon for the full-length $5 Add-On Video is included at no extra charge, walking through the steps alongside the printed instructions.

Perfect For New sewists who want a fast, low-pressure project with a polished result Anyone looking to use up cherished scraps and fat quarters Makers who want quick, practical handmade gifts Sewists who like a pattern that yields six finished projects across two styles Why You'll Love This Pattern Tidy Time is built for quick wins. Each project uses very little fabric and comes together fast, so a finished mat or tray is an easy afternoon make and a ready-to-go gift. With two styles in three sizes each, one pattern keeps producing useful results long after the first try. The mats are simple quilted rectangles that hold a mug, a snack, or protect a surface. The trays use a clever side-fold construction to create their shape without fiddly steps, so they stay beginner-friendly while still looking finished. Because three pieces of Soft and Stable come in the package, you can start sewing right away.
