My son's birthday was in February and he requested a tool roll for his wood carving tools.
I actually made it yesterday!
I bought the fabric from The Cloth House in London-fabulous fabric shop!
I couldn't buy oil cloth, apparently few places stock it as it has to be stored in an even temperature, so decided on a waxed cotton, dark green on the wax side and beige on the reverse......
.....made a very simple sketch and decided how many pockets etc.
I measured everything twice then cut out two rectangles. As this was to store sharp tools I stitched wadding between the two layers with the beige side for the interior......
.....straight line stitching for added strength and because I enjoy the process!
I folded the bottom over and stitched 7 pockets then had fun designing and stitching initials....
...this is on the inside.
Just need to buy some strong tape to wrap around and it will be finished.
Only 2 more items left on my 'To Do' list!!
