I have microsuede for lining and a zip and matching binding so this little project will cost me nothing but time.
So when my hardanger is finished....off I go on Japanese kogin adventure.

The next "adventure"
Some years ago I received an embroidered pencil case from my boss' wife. It has been in regular use in my handbag ever since. But alas! The inside has a plastic-feel fused lining which now is rather sticky to touch. Time for a new one.
I dug through my stash knowing that I had no navy fabric suitable but this ecru lugana should serve the purpose.
DMC perle #8 in black should give a suitable contrast. And if I cannot imitate the embroidery from the case itself, this book of Kogin patterns should surely provide something :-)

What a great project! I love the repeating of the login patterns.
ReplyDeleteThat should be kogin, not login.
DeleteBefore I read Pamela's comment I was thinking she would be interested. It is a beautiful pencil case and I am sure your new one will be equally unique, but with a better lining.
ReplyDeleteBon voyage!
I like the new project, looks like it will be useful as well as beautiful.
ReplyDeleteKogin embroidery has a really interesting look to it, so I'm looking forward to seeing this new project of yours :)
ReplyDeleteLooks as if it will be an interesting project.
