It’s a colored pencil case for your colored pencils! Of course, you can fill it with whatever you like – pens, sewing tools, sunglasses – any way you use it, it’s a wonderful project to showcase your time well-spent embroidering. Portland, Oregon artist Rebecca Ringquist has designed this Dropcloth Sampler for you to embroider by hand with this cute and stylish storage solution in mind. To embroider the pencil pattern, she show stitches such as filled back stitch and brick stitch, and once completed, she shows you how to turn it into a lined, flat zippered case that’s just the perfect size to throw in a bag and join you on all your adventures.
