One of many cool projects from the book: Needle House This project is a great way to keep sewing needles organized, and what’s a cuter shape than a house? You can have different houses for different kinds of needles, or you can add more “rooms” (extra pieces of felt) to your house and use different rooms for different types of needles. Directions 1. CUT THE PATTERN AND FABRIC. Print and cut out the Needle House pattern. Pin the pattern to two layers of felt. (When pinning for cutting, make sure the pins are inside the pattern piece, or you might cut a pin and damage your scissors. See page 25 for more details.) Use the fabric scissors to carefully cut out a house from both pieces of felt. 2. SEW THE LEFT SIDE TOGETHER. Take the two pieces of felt and place them together. Pin the left sides together. (When pinning for sewing, pin with the pinheads sticking out of the fabric.) Thread the needle and knot. Using a whipstitch, sew the left side to create the “wall.” Once you get to the end, tie a finishing knot (see page 18). Every time you start and stop sewing there should be a knot. 3. ADD YOUR NEEDLES. You now have a home to store all your needles. Tools & Materials Pattern for Needle House Pencil Scissors Pins Fabric Scissors Embroidery needle and thread 9 × 12–inch felt
