We’ll work with Ribbon, Velcro, and Labels this month and make Stabilizer Keepers. The "Keeper" has a little pillow with ribbons attached to each end and fastens with Velcro. The name of the stabilizer is written on an Erasable Label for easy identification, or you can make a clear pocket to hold a printed label. To use the stabilizer, undo the Velcro – no need to remove the keeper. This version uses snaps to attach the ribbons, making the Keepers easy to change and update. These are also a great way to identify your stabilizers at club when everyone has the same item. I color-coded my "Keepers" – see page 4 on the Project Sheet to see how I do mine.

Hi I'm PJ
Since 2006 I’ve been a teacher at Montavilla Sewing Centers in the Portland Metro area. I design, produce and teach the monthly projects for Babylock Serger Club, Janome, BabyLock and Brother Machine Embroidery Club, and 8” Block of the month Club.
I have a lot of fun creating projects, designs, and patterns that incorporate techniques and products to encourage the students to get the most out of their Sergers or Embroidery Machines.
