FREE Pen or Pencil Case sewing tutorial
This is a FREE Pen Case sewing tutorial from the designer Pink Penguin.
This lovely Pen Case has a beautifully bound zipper and makes use of optional patchworking with upto five different fabrics. It’s definatly a scrap friendly project and sure does have a cute triangle shape.
Looking at the end result we suggest lengthening the zipper just a little bit at each end so your bag will fully open wide to easily access what you have inside. But that’s optional.
Materials needed:
- 5x 1 1/4″ x 9 3/4″ cotton fabrics for the centre patchwork
- 2x 3″ x 9 3/4″ Wool felt (or other fabric of your choice) for the outer
- Fleece batting or fusible fleece for padding and stability
- 1x 9″ x 9 3/4″ cotton fabric for lining
- 4x 3 1/2 inch square pieces for the ends of the bag, outer and lining
- 9 inch zipper – or longer
- Piece of cotton fabric for binding the zipper
- Small squares of fabric for the zipper ends
- Ususal sewing supplies
- Sewing machine
- Hand sewing thread and needle
