My Wool Sewing Case..

 In 2010 I discovered Wool Crazy by JoAnn Mulally.  I convinced three other friends to participate in a wool round robin.  At the time a lot of people were making their projects into pincushions.  I decided to make mine into a sewing case.  The first one I made has a Summer theme to it and has "Leave Room in the Garden for the Fairies to Dance."
Case opened up with a few necessary sewing supplies.
 View from the bottom.
 The second one I made I did all the stitching on the top myself.  Winter theme for a Winter born baby!
 Snowflakes inside.  Stitched on the side it says "Snowflakes are Angel Kisses."
 Signed bottom.
I can't figure out how to load a pd f link for you to print so I scanned my Word document and made it a jpeg.  You should be able to right mouse click on the images and print them off.

If you do make one I'd love to see a photo of it and please give me credit for the instructions. If you have a blog please link it to this page for others to enjoy.

I just realized this is my 401 post, a gift for you to enjoy!

Wool Crazy is a great book by JoAnn Mullaly. There is an online group called Wool Crazy Sew Along that I have been following lately. A group of 4 members decided to do a smaller wool crazy pin cushion round robin. I approached 3 friends and got them to come and play with me in this venture. I hope to share these pictures on their blog and get a button to link their site to mine. Ethel Snow's theme is Mr. McGarrity's garden, her bunny is just adorable. I can hardly wait to see what other things we find in her garden.
My theme is Flowers and Bugs. Often when I photograph flowers I find a lot of bees and ladybugs paying them visits. This also feels like a Summer theme to me.
Our friend Debbie Matthews loves Halloween, she has sent on some buttons and floss along with her piece for us to play while creating her piece.
Sandi Hill is our fourth member and she loves all things fall. She has a lovely oak leaf and acorn needle case that will co-ordinate nicely with this piece.
Please check back periodically and see how the pieces grow.
