This month we will make a fun and versatile project, I call it Tube Covers. This is the new and improved version of the 2014 project. The original size is for 2” diameter tubes, I’ve added 2 sizes for 3” and 4” diameter tubes. This project makes a great alternative to wrapping paper, and an easy way to wrap hard-to-wrap items, it’s also a great way to upcycle packagings like TP, Paper towels, and stabilizer tubes. Quaker Oat containers also work great. TP tubes are a good size to stuff with candy!

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.
