so why did i make a needlecase? well you guys all know that i love little handmade treasures that are fun to make, interesting in construction, easy to personalize and add a big pop of pizazz to your sewing notion repertoire! anytime i can pretty up my notions and supplies i'm in! add a ruffle to it and i'm sold. i've got a thing for needlecases and i thought i would show you all how to ruffle up the style of needlecase that i use. i've noticed lately that the booklet style has become very popular but there is something about the size, shape and construction of this one that i just adore. it's one of my fave go to gifts for special little pressies and also a good project for beginners to work on there topstitching and hand sewing.
