Felted Needlecase and Scissors Holder

Recently I showed you some felted pieces that I had done and here is one of the items that I have made with them.
I wanted to keep the organic edges on the fabric so I decided to make a bigger that usual needlecase and also have a place to keep the scissors.
The piece of lace was something I had dyed recently and seemed to fit in well with the colours in the felt.



Here is a view of the front and back---


And this is the inside---
I made a twisted cord on the sewing machine using the bobbin winder method.
I stitched a cord on the left hand side so I could hold the scissors in place and also added a small pocked to prevent them from swinging about.



I am going to make about 6 of these altogether to sell at the exhibition in September.
