The Thread Organiser

For mums Christmas present I made her a thread organizer. I used a small cross stitch pattern I had done in an afternoon/evening. The cover is leather as is the scissor holder which I made to fit stork scissors.

Front cover

 
The cross stitch pattern is from Joan Elliot's Bewitching cross stitch. The rest of the design I made up as I went along. The closure is Velcro and the whole thing is stitched around the edge.

Inside the organizer

  The Inside has a scissor holder and pin/needle holder plus replaceable thread organizing cards. The pin holder is close cell foam covered with the calico lining, there is a thin card board layer between the lining and outside leather. The cards are folded around wires.
