If you don't like pencil cases available in stores, maybe you can make one yourself or for your child on your own? No one else will have such a pencil case. Another advantage is that you can choose the color and texture of the material you like.
Things you will need
*Cut the fabric
* two pieces of main fabric 12 x 28 cm
* two pieces of fabric for lining 12 x 28 cm
* two pieces of ironing cloth 12 x 28 cm
* one piece of fabric for lining 10 x 20 cm
* You will also need
* zipper of at least 30 cm
1
Smooth the seam on the wrong side of the fabric you want to pull out.
2
Sweep the sides of the lining fabric along one long edge.
Stroke the open seam.
3
Iron 1.5cm (left side together) along the longer edges of the main fabric.
4
Fasten the zipper with the left side along the seam on the lining fabric (we used a slightly longer zipper, let it hang freely on the sides. It's okay, you can always trim it later. Fasten the top edge of the main fabric with a pin along the edge of the zipper. Sew it close to the zipper.
5
Repeat the same process with the remaining piece of cloth.
6
Use the razor blade to rip the seam in the lining.
7
This is how it should be.
8
Secure the right sides of the remaining long edges with a safety pin. Sew, leaving a 7.5 cm gap on the lining side
. 9
This is how the stitched model looks, with a small gap left on the lining side. You will use this to turn your work inside out. Smooth out the seams.
10
Do you remember that smaller part of the lining fabric that you cut earlier? Fold the sides together and stitch.
11
Turn out the sides, iron the loop and cut in half. These will be your pens.
12
And now the most difficult part. Secure the fabric with a safety pin in order: the bottom seam of the lining, the zipper, one of your folded handles, and finally the bottom seam of the main fabric. Make sure that the zipper can open to the middle of the pencil case.
13
Sew both sides together. Trim the zipper again, make sure that the zipper is in the center. You do not need to cut off the part of the zipper that holds the fastener.
14
Turn the pencil case inside out through the 7.5 cm hole that you left in the bottom seam of the lining. Sew up the gap.
15
The effect that you should get at this stage of the work. You can agree to this if you want a flat container, or continue if you want to shape it into a box.
16
When working with the case from the outside, stretch the corners so that they form triangles, and the stitches should go straight through the center. Sew perpendicular to the loop. The longer the seam line, the higher the pencil case will be.
