Liberty Tana Lawn® Fabric Needle Case Kit, Alice Caroline
Stylish, compact, and oh-so-satisfying to make, this Liberty Needle Case is a gorgeous little project using the traditional English Paper Piecing (EPP) method. It's a lovely way to keep your needles safe and organised-whether nestled in your sewing box or tucked into your travel kit.
You'll piece together a charming hexagon front using a selection of Liberty Tana Lawn® prints, before constructing the needle case with simple quilting techniques. Once the front is stitched, assembly is straightforward and beginner-friendly. Whether you choose to use a machine or stitch by hand. Felt pages inside provide a soft spot for your needles, and the case is finished with a neat strip binding and button clasp.
It’s a wonderful small-scale make, ideal for gifting or enjoying a bit of mindful stitching for yourself. And if this is your first taste of EPP, be warned-it’s highly addictive!
