I have just released a new pattern into the world! Sometimes it feels like giving birth - so much effort, and then finally you're there!
I had fun with this project and have had it sitting on my drawing board for awhile waiting for a lull in my book-writing escapade to write the instructions. This is a bifold needlecase (5"x8" closed) and has pockets for all of those small bits and pieces I'm always losing (hopefully no more!).
On the front is an angel complete with sewing machine and basket of bits....
When you open the cover there is more to see (this almost WAS the cover, as I liked all the sewing accessories - decisions, decisions....)
a bit of a close-up...
then you open it up all the way and there are pockets galore! Pockets for my rotary cutter, marking pens etc, a centre pocket with space for threads and thimbles, a pocket for my quick-unpick (how many times do I have to search for that!!), a pocket for my scissors, not to mention a needlebook and a pinkeeper - YAY - all together at last - here's hoping everything will stay that way!
the inside with everything in, ready to use!
We have just done a big post out to quite a few shops, so hopefully you will be able to find one of these patterns in your local patchwork shop.
Until next time,
Anni
It is so eautiful, I like it so much. Congratulations.
Kisses from Spain

Hopefully getting a pattern out is not as sweaty, or so painful you need drugs!

That is absolutely adorable!!! I agree, the accessories are wonderful! I love that it holds the rotary cutter and seam ripper too. That makes it a little more handy than your average 'tool holder.' Needless to say, I love it! :)

Hope you'll have some of these available at Nundle. Looks gorgeous. Not long 'til we get there.

j'ai réalisé votre modèle de trousse "ange de couture" paru dans le magasine quilt country en france, c'était mon premier vrai travail de patch et j'ai adoré, vos modèles me plaisent beaucoup et je compte bien vous suivre de prés dans l'actualité de vos créations. BRAVO

Love it, Love it, LOVE IT!!! Now I will be able to keep all my bits together whilst sitting on the side of a sporting field watching/waiting for my children. Thankyou Anni
