Crayon Roll

I made this crayon roll for my niece.  It is great to have on the go for kids.  This was only my third sewing project, so I was very pleased with how it turned out and she loved it. 

Step 1 Getting Started and Sewing the Pockets

To make this, I started with 3 pieces of material that were 18 inches wide x 6 inches high. Two pieces will be matching for the front and back and one piece different for the pockets. Once you have your materials selected, you need to fold the inside pocket piece in half and lay it on the inside piece of fabric showing the design. You will need to pin this in place or use a piece of wonder tape, etc to hold the material in place.

Now, you will need to make a space for each crayon pocket 1 inch apart and then stitch the pockets. You should have 16 pockets.  I used a zig zag stitch because I thought it would be fun, but if you are making this for a younger child, you may want to use a straight stitch for extra hold.

This is cool. Simple ideas that we never think of are the best.
