Felt needle-book

This cute little felt needle-book was a short project in Craft Magazine volume 6, page 58. It's very simple to make, and has turned out to be really useful.

Just two rectangles of felt, sewn together down the middle, with a little latch added as a closure. It's closed with a metal snap, the button is added just for decoration.

The image of the woman sewing is a small piece of fabric taken from a sewing themed fabric I received as part of a random scrap/sample pack I'd bought. I couldn't think of a more suitable piece of fabric. It's simply placed on top and wide zig-zag stitched on.

It's handy to keep odd pins and needles neat and tidy, and also to bring a small selection with you in case you have to leave the house :)
