I've been working on an Eye Glass Case and did it in Needle Point.
It's a Christmas gift for someone special so I had to put her name on it.
I used a stencil and sharpie to put her name on the bottom of the case then continued with the needle work.
Once I finished with the needle point I started with the lining fabric. I'm one to mix colors and patterns so I found this pretty wild flannel that I thought would be easy on a pair of lenses and not scratch.
When I purchased the 1/4 yard of flannel, the woman behind the cutting table said "your going to use that pattern for your lining"? Sure, I said, "I love to be daring"! She only smiled.
I cut the fabric to size and pinned into place, then stitched it up on the machine.. Was easy and fast!
Another Christmas gift finished.
I'm happy to say the list is getting shorter!
How is your Christmas shopping going?

This is adorable...I know she will love it.
Your comment on my table post...you said "out of a wire holder"..?
This was a little table I picked up at a thrift place and we redid it. You can see the story on the link I provided in the post.
Thanks much...
Beautiful! She is going to love this. I admire your work. Making 5 crazy Christmas quilts for each of my children. Two are finished. I have lots of blocks made, but still need to put them together. Time goes by way too fast!
It's beautiful! I imagine that anyone would love to have such a lovely case.
That is such a great gift. The zipper part would probably throw me. I'm not really good with putting in zippers!
