If you follow me on Flickr, you sure saw few pictures of my sewing tools and notions just laying on my craft desk I've uploaded lately. Elisabeth guessed correctly, I was going to take my sewing stuff on my travel. (Marguerite, I'll travel by train, and yes, not everything would be allowed to take on a plain). Thank you all for playing does-it-make-any-sense-to-you-guess-game!
Okai, back to my sewing case. I named it ultimate because it's perfect (clever me! {road sign: ironic}), it holds all my tools:
roller cutter,
seam ripper,
crochet hooks,
pen,
pencil,
scissors,
pincushion,
sewing thread,
embroidery hook,
embroidery floss,
measuring tape,
!!!
I can carry hexagon templates or fabric scraps in a roomy zipper bag! Small things in a pocket with two Velcro's! I added an extra pocket for large pieces of fabric or crochet instructions, or whatever. Oh, I used newest Tilda prints which arrived on Tuesday. 30 bolts of happiness! It was really hard to pick out prints. I added here and there vintage lace, I used a trim Cybil from Alaska sent me along a swap parcel and elastic strap for thread.
I needed 5 hours to get it done, and I'm very happy and satisfied with the result. Now I'm off to pack my luggage for trip. See ya!
Have a great time!

WOW, this is absolutely incredible! I would LOVE a sewing case just like this - it even has room for crochet hooks and hexies - both of which I need as well!
Do you have any plans to sell a pattern for this? I would be very interested!
