Crafty share

After reading Susie's crafty promise post yesterday, I got up and opened the cupboard door.
And faced this pile.

It is a particularly yummy pile.
Just waiting to be turned into crafty goodness.

I figured I would make something that had nagged at me for a while...
A new BIG needleroll that would fit all my knitting needles, no more wondering where the 4mm ones are hiding at.. :)

It took a few hours of cutting, sewing and ironing, but I finished it.


And opened:

I was pleased that I didn't rush, but thought it through as I went.
That in turn guaranteed no ripped seams because of a mistake :)
Added bonus was the fact that I found just enough of matching Marimekko fabrics.



To close, simply fold the top flap and roll.

I also spent some time going through some crafty tutorials and saved images on my computer and made a list of 12 things I'd like to make this year.

Well, technically it's still a list of 10 but I'm leaving some room ;)

In other words: stay tuned for more.

Oh, and thanks Susie :D
