I have always been interested in sewing accessories, I have found a few vintage needle cases, and it inspired me to make up one of my own. As a quilter I like Sun bonnet Sue. I love to look at the blocks on a quilt and pick out the dress combo I like the best. Well here are a couple of my SBS, needle cases, I just drew out a shape I liked and went from there, to open it you just lift it up under the bonnet and the needles are inside.
I also made the ribbon pansies.

Wanda, now you are very clever with the sunbonnets and pansies.
Love them. Yes I do use acrylics, pretty much for everything.
I do iron to set tho'.aloha Lilla
These are so sweet! My mother is a quilter, but I never quite got the hang of it. This would be a clever gift idea to suggest to her...or maybe I could try my hand at it, if it isn't too difficult? I'm always losing needles.
Thanks for visiting me!
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I see you love roses too! I enjoyed seeing your projects. Very beautiful!
Thanks for stopping by my blog for a visit. My daughter loves to quilt. She always has a few quilts in progress. I'll tell her about these cute needle cases.
My computer just opened up to your blog and I was instantly in love with the roses on your blog banner... what are they? Must be an English Rose; they’re so lovely… ;)
so nice meeting you!

Dear Wanda,
These are darling!
You are so cleaver.
I also sew and have started an Artful Living blog. I post on Tuesdays!
Looking forward to reading your journal and getting to know you.
Namaste,
Sherry
Oh goodness how adorable..I have an affinity to pin holders as I do a bit of sewing when I can find the time...!
Wonder if I could make one in a blue suede shoe, in honor of Elvis? LOL
Loved reading your posting on the Way Back When blog :)
How DARLING, and your pretty, pretty Pansies!
Just lovely!
