Thank you for all of your lovely comments and “likes” on this post. You have all encouraged me to open up the shutters of my Esty shop and dust down the shelves 🙂
Another handmade sewing case and pattern with photo-tutorial will soon be available.
This is the back.

/ April 9, 2012I can’t believe you just whipped this up in a day! It’s brilliant
Oh Sew Tempting
/ April 9, 2012Aw! Thank you Claire. It really was just throwing a few scraps together 😉 Notice how I put cross-stitch goodies inside?
claire93
/ April 9, 2012does this mean you’re going to pick up some cross stitch projects?
Oh Sew Tempting
/ April 9, 2012Yes, I’ve done quite a few types of needlework in the past and I must say you’ve inspired me to go back to it. I’m going to send you a picture of a past project soon 🙂

Jaclyn Rodgers
/ April 9, 2012I would love for you to make a tutorial for this!! I have been looking and looking for a travel case for my embroidery and this one is perfect!! So, please DO make a tutorial!! 🙂
Oh Sew Tempting
/ April 9, 2012I might just do that. Thank you for stopping by my blog 🙂
Teje
/ April 9, 2012Thank you my friend! Looks beautiful and just what I need! I thought I would need something to keep my tools when travelling but didn’t know how to make it. Your idea is great and it starts like a mini quilt! We can use also some blocks that are waiting … I think I have just what it needs! Happy sewing! x Teje
Oh Sew Tempting
/ April 9, 2012Brilliant! I know you’ll have it made ready for your travels. Now, I wonder, will it have any orange in it??… 😉
Teje
/ April 9, 2012…. I wonder how your guessed? Yesterday I looked my ‘forgotten’ blocks and there is one from the sewing machine cover … hexagon with orange and green! x Teje
Oh Sew Tempting
/ April 9, 2012I knew it, I knew it 🙂 Good luck. I’m looking forward to seeing it! Avis x

The Modern Home Economist
/ April 9, 2012I am loving all your projects. They are such a good use of fabric scraps and also really practical! Ill be adding this one to the “to-do” pile as well.
Oh Sew Tempting
/ April 10, 2012Aw, thank you! You are going to be soooo busy 🙂
Folly Bloom

Oh Sew Tempting
/ April 10, 2012Go for it Pixie! Let us see the results if you do make one 🙂
Ria
/ April 10, 2012Lovely!
With the amount of sewing I’ve been doing lately, I’ve really been contemplating making something like this for myself. It could really come in handy!
Oh Sew Tempting
/ April 10, 2012I’m using mine all of the time now. Everything is in one place at last!
Bonnie
/ April 11, 2012This is adorable! I want to make one for myself!! Thanks for the tutorial. 😉
Oh Sew Tempting
/ April 11, 2012Thank you Bonnie 🙂 Welcome to my blog. It would be lovely to see your version if you make one!
initforthehoney
/ April 14, 2012I think the photos are just great! Greyness doesn’t show up and the details do show up excellently. What a pretty sewing case too. Lovely fresh colours. If it’s not raining or blowing a gale a good tip is to photograph outside on a grey day, one to maximise the available light which gives truer colours and two, because there are no strong shadows to contend with. Probably preaching to the converted but it’s a tip I learned off my dad years ago and has stood me in good stead.
Oh Sew Tempting
/ April 15, 2012No! I definitely need lessons in the photography department. I live by the sea so it is usually breezy at least. I will try outdoor photos with my next project (which is almost finished) and you can let me know what you think, as long as the weather allows. Your photos are fabulous!! so I’m more than pleased to take any tips 🙂 Thank you 🙂
Kelly
/ April 15, 2012LOVE this kit! You’ve done a wonderful job, it’s so sweet. I’m definitely copying this one and I can see myself subtly whipping it out at my next sewing class to play for compliments 😛 – thanks for the inspiration!
Oh Sew Tempting
/ April 15, 2012He-he! Good for you! Before you know it, they’ll all want one 🙂 When I go to shows I always have a look at people’s handmade bags and plan to make them 🙂
argonzalez312
/ April 23, 2012I am definitely going to steal this one!!! I really could use a small kit for the hand work I drag around with me to activities. I will have to see what materials I have… actually wait somewhere… i think I have the perfect material now I just have to find it!!!
Oh Sew Tempting
/ April 23, 2012Great! I’m actually writing a proper pattern and tutorial for this but you will probably be able to sort it out. Take a look at Teje’s blog as she made another variation which was lovely. Enjoy 🙂
