In early July I went to a class with Annie Unrein of Patterns by Annie at Sew Inn in Colac.
It was a fabulous two days doing two different classes with Annie. She is just the loveliest person and such a patient and good teacher!
On the second day (after some advance preparation in my hotel room the night before) I almost managed to finish the Running With Scissors bag… I was THIS close!
Once back at home with work and catching up on my to do list… it took me a couple of weeks to get the case finally finished!
And wow…. how happy am I with this case?! It fits soooooo many of my tools and notions yet doesn’t take up too much room to pop in a bag to take to classes or on holidays!
And the insert pad in the middle has a two fold use… it stops the tools from hitting each other when the case is closed, but also (because it has two layers of soft ‘n stable in it) makes a perfect small ironing mat with a travel iron!.
I made the pockets and spots for tools to fit my particular group of tools and there was only one place I should have done differently…. hehe… next time!
And all in one of my favourite fabrics of all time… Aria by Kate Spain 🙂
If you ever get a chance to do a class with Annie, do it! You will not be disappointed AT ALL!
This notion case is one my third quarter Finishalong #2018FALÂ #2018FALSWL

Excellent! That looks like a handy thing to have, and so attractive.
This looks like a super useful bag! Beautiful!
Thanks Emily!
What a wonderful finish! That looks like it was a really fun class. Thanks for linking up on behalf of the 2018 Finish-A-Long global hosts.
