In the past I have always pre-threaded my quilting needles and embroidery needles and just stuck them on the thread itself but this is such a great idea with maybe adding a velcro to stick it to my small basket I carry with my other thread essentials. I will try the above blogspot for her instructions. Thank you, and I have also repinned your other items on this page. I use the oldfashioned trays for beading also.

Have you ever seen something for 20 inch blocks? Or that half completed quilt top? Is it just fold it up and put in a sack? I know pizza boxes sometimes works good, but should we be concerned about storing good fabric in card board, should we line it in acid free paper?? Yes I have all sorts of plastic containers and plastic bags from sandwich bags to gallon size bags. Maybe need to go to a scrapbooking specialty store to see what they have to store larger sheets of cardstock. Take care - have a good day/class.

This is the template for the ends. cut out 4. cover each of these with yo yo's cut 1" in diameter bigger than the template. Gather these around the cardboard. And whipstitch 2 together with the gathers facing each other. Then wrap a piece of paper around the spool about 1 1/2 times and add 1/2" to the length of the spool this will be the length and width of the sleeve of the case. Add 1/2" Seam allowance to the length and width of this template and cut (2) pieces of fabric. Whith right sides together Stitch these pieces together on 3 sides and turn right side out and stith the opening closed. Looking at the picture stitch the circles halfway around the to each end of the sleeve. Stitch a ribbon to the end of the sleeve and wrap the sleeve around to place a button.Tanyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10765119352763440615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-47390482132992326172011-05-22T01:22:12.415-04:002011-05-22T01:22:12.415-04:00The unending quest for a the perfect storage conta...The unending quest for a the perfect storage container, men don't realise that's all we really wqant!
