I had so much fun making my needle case that I decided to make another one, with a few upgrades. First, I decided to piece the outside using some of my bright scraps:
Then, I decided to forgo the two decorative pockets in favor of a single, functional pocket. And I opted for felt instead of flannel for the lining. Since felt is a little thicker and stiffer than flannel, I didn’t put any batting in between the outer striped fabric and the inner felt. Here is the result:
I think it’s fabulous! It’s amazing what a sense of accomplishment I’ve gotten from such a little thing!
P.S. No purchases were made for this project (or for the first needle case). 🙂
