Am I now going to try and get you to notice tiny, yellow stitches on a giant sheet of white paper?

It would seem so.

Am I going to succeed?

Who knows.

Whether I do or not, I can report with absolute certainty that I have now stitched all the pockets and pleats from the last post firmly in place. That accomplished, I turned under the edges and stitched them down. Then I ran two lines of stitching down through the whole piece to divide the pockets into three columns.

So we’ve gone from one very large piece of paper with lovely rough edges and turned it into a smaller pleated and stitched piece with crisp folded edges. And you could stop here. You could absolutely fill and hang this just as it is.

But I know some of the things I’m going to want to put in there over the years are going to be tall enough that they might tip out, even with the wider array of pocket heights and flap positions. And I have a toy. And no fear. So I’m going to do things with grommets!
