Free Directions to Sew a Back Seat Vehicle Organizer

On the top edge of each pocket, sandwich the pocket fabric and narrow elastic inside the folded grosgrain ribbon. Stitch the ribbon through all the layers. Do not catch the elastic in the stitching. Allow the elastic to lay flat and leave enough to grab at each end for gathering purposes when you place the pocket on the main piece. (If you are a beginner, you may find it easier to baste the pocket to the bottom layer of the ribbon before working the elastic and top stitching all the layers).
