What I found was a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.etsy.com\/listing\/772549594\/knitting-needle-caseorganizer-pdf-sewing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Knitting Needle Case<\/a> pattern from Zaudal Creates. It has been sitting in my &#8220;must make ASAP&#8221; pile for a few months. I took it to <a href=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2022\/10\/pointillist-palette-4-returns\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sew Day<\/a> to cut out. Fortunately, I had already gathered the pattern and supplies, so I was able to cut out most of the pieces.<\/p>\n<p>N.B. If you are careful in your shopping, you can get <a href=\"https:\/\/www.etsy.com\/listing\/963006132\/2-sewing-patternsbundle-knitting-needle?click_key=6726fa37070148344ccc4c2d405ca0e0b1a27bac%3A963006132&amp;click_sum=1e4355d0&amp;ref=shop_home_active_1&amp;crt=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">two bag patterns<\/a> for only slightly more money from her shop.<\/p>\n<p>One of the things I like about this pattern is the snap that keeps circular needles in place. I don&#8217;t know if this bag will hold all of my needles, but I can always make a second one, if it doesn&#8217;t. Maybe one for circular needles and one for double pointed needles?<\/p>\n<p>Zaudal is located in Norway, so she had references to Vilene&nbsp; interfacing. I was able to find a <a href=\"https:\/\/sewsweetness.com\/2012\/05\/all-about-bag-interfacing.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">chart<\/a> created by Sara at Sew Sweetness. This chart told me that Vilene H250&#8217;s US equivalent is Pellon Decor Bond (809). I didn&#8217;t have this at Sew Day, so it was the only part I didn&#8217;t cut out.<\/p>\n<p>I asked some questions about what I could use instead. I was being cheap and lazy, but eventually I went to Joann and got some Decor Bond. It is not too stiff, but it does add some stiffness to the fabrics. I cut it out and fused it to the interior and exterior of the fabrics shown above at <a href=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2022\/10\/gerres-epp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gerre&#8217;s house<\/a> .<\/p>\n<p>As a result, I am pretty much ready to sew this bag together. It is waiting its turn, which will be after I finish PP4.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Remember when I went to the sock knitting class?
