I am so pleased with how my finished needle roll has turned out. I made a few changes to the pattern, more in design interpretation rather than anything to the measurements. The backing fabric for the middle outside cover and binding is not linen but a scrap from this shirt. I made a covered button to tie in with the inside lining and the fabric on the base of the vase. Mine has possibly ended up a bit puffier than the one in the pattern due to the wool blend batting I used.
I am going to enjoy using this needle book, I love all the colours I've used and special fabrics and trims.
Finished measurements are approximately 16" x 8.5"

Beautiful! I love all the colours, very eye catching! And the braid adds a real pizzazz touch to it!
ReplyDeleteA great result Julie. I am currently making some simple needle cases for the sales table at our exhibition, out of felt. They are not as comprehensive as your but will be sold really cheaply so I can't spent too long on each one. They are a great portable hand sewing project though.
