Oak sewing and craft caddy
A red oak sewing caddy that carries a whole project from cupboard to table in one hand: nine walnut spool pegs along the tall centre divider, three bays in front for scissors, rulers and the pincushion, two deeper bays behind for fabric and yarn, and a walnut handle through arched ends. Everything is housed in dados, so it stays square however heavy it is loaded.
Passes Crava's checks for fit, strength and stability. Change any size, the wood or the finish in the app, and it is checked again.
