City Toy Bins Sew-Along: Week 3

The final week of the City Toy Bins Sew-Along is here, and it’s time to wrap up your projects and celebrate everything you’ve created. This week focuses on completing your bins, adding final creative touches, and showcasing your playful village in all its glory.

Each bin you’ve sewn, whether it’s the Fire Station, Police Station, Market, or a custom creation, tells a story and adds a layer of charm and functionality to your home. These bins aren’t just storage—they’re a meaningful way to organize with heart, creativity, and imagination.



Final Week Highlights

This week is all about finishing strong.

1️⃣ Complete Your Bins: Whether you’re finishing a bonus bin or adding the last few stitches to a project, take time to enjoy the process.

2️⃣ Add Final Details: Custom touches like embroidered names, decorative stitches, or even sparkle paste bring your bins to life. Let your creativity shine.

3️⃣ Share Your Village: Showcase your completed bins or the entire collection. Seeing everyone’s unique creations is one of the best parts of a sew-along!


Designer Tip: Display with Purpose

Think about how you’ll use and display your bins. Stack them in a playroom, line them up along a bookshelf, or incorporate them into your child’s imaginative play area. Adding a label or tag to each bin can make them even more functional and fun.


✨ Bonus Idea: Create a little scene for your village! Add toy cars, figurines, or books to bring your “city” to life and inspire even more imaginative play.
