SEWING ACCESSORY BOOK




























































































I have been thinking of making a sewing kit or book for quite some time..But didnt want to follow any tutorial for my requirements were different ..So by writing them down and then drawing a sketch helped a lot ..I made this one in a simple way anyone can copy..I don't have the patience for doing a tutorial but am very much sure that my craft land friends are smart enough to make out how I have done it..If you have a close watch over the different cases I have attached to the lining piece,it's a piece of cake for you!! I have made a scissor case, a small zippered pouch, one simple pin cushion, few needle leaves to rest my needles that are used often, two long cases for storing my pencil, pen and measuring tape and another case for my rotary cutter..The pouch has been attached by machine sewing , at the centre.. It will stand up politely as you open the book!!(lol)..!..Its meant as a 'store all pouch' ,I have even stored my calcium and vitamin suppliments inside the pouch..( whenever I open the book it reminds me to take my daily supply!!)..The small red coloured pocket inside the pouch carries my tailor's chalk!This idea is to protect the other articles inside the pouch from getting soiled by the chalk powder.The scissor pouch is large enough to store one medium and one small sized scissor...The red coloured felt needle leaves are attached to the inside of the covering flap of the rotary cutter case..This way they will hide themselves neatly.All the cases as well as the inner fabric have been reinforced using interfacing..I have quilted the outer fabric lightly along the envelope designs.There are tiny rose designs over which some beads have been attached.


Hope my friends have been inspired enough to make one like this today itself:):)




The small ones are simple needle and pin books.
!!..Happy stitching
