Travel Sewing Kit
I have been wanting to make a Travel Sewing Kit for sometime now. We are in the car quite often and it seems like the perfect place to take along my hand sewing projects.
I wanted something compact, yet large enough to hold the essentials that I would need. After checking out several different patterns, I ended up making the Fold-Up Sewing Folio from the book Stitched Sewing Organizers by Aneela Hoey.
There's always some type of hand sewing that needs to be done - binding a quilt, appliqué, mending. It's amazing how much you can get done in a small window of time.
Another nice feature of this bag is that you can drape it over the arm of a couch for sewing at home.
I made this case with the same fabric that I used for my Quilter's Planner Cover for a coordinating set.
Busy hands make me happy and I can see many hours of blissful sewing ahead.
What pretty little projects and great job assembling all the little detailed compartments for the sewing kit! Very cute.
ReplyDeleteHi Linda - Thanks for the sweet comment. I am happy with how the cover and the sewing kit turned out. I expect they will both get plenty of use!
DeleteIt turned out great and I love the fabrics you chose. This will be a helpful thing to take with you on a trip. Have fun sewing, Suzanne!
