Hello everyone! It’s Happy National Sewing Month! Yayyy! That means I will dedicate at least 30 minutes a day to sewing and practicing my skills all month long.

Let’s start off with a super cute needle and thread case. I love sewing on the go, so having a cute case to carry all of my supplies in is perfect for me.

Let’s take a look at my new needle and thread case:

Cute shape, right?! I love the shape of these thread and needle cases.

Let’s take a look inside:

You can add your favorite threads and needles and keep them safe. The best part is the pattern is a free pattern from Sharon Holland!

Let’s take about this fabric:

This fabric collection is called Community from Rachel Erickson of Citrus & Mint Designs for Riley Blake Designs.

Rachel created this collection to react to the widespread hurt and divisiveness felt during the Covid-19 pandemic and the Black Lives Matter movement. Both events left her wanting more unity, love, and diversity in the world and her desire to go outside, travel, and be surrounded by people again.

This collection comprises 24 different prints in colors like green, honey, orchid, coral, blush, blue, mint, and cream.

Here’s what you need to create your own thread and needle case:

Follow the pattern’s direction on how to make these. The pattern is easy to follow, and you can make a bunch of these in no time.

The finished size is 5 inches by 4inches, so you can make a couple of these out of two different fat quarters.

I love how these smaller thread sizes fit in this case.

Perfect for sashiko and embroidery thread as well.

Adding a pearl snap adds a finishing touch.

I love how the case holds its shape when it’s open.

I’m totally in love with these thread and needle cases. Very different from the traditional needle books.

So, tell me what you think?

Will you try and make your own thread and needle cases? I would love to see them.
