Another Jewellery Roll

Hi everyone,

Today I am sharing with you another make. I have already shown you one I have previously made in other fabrics but I love making this so much that I couldn't resist making another.

I made this particular one in cotton canvas fabrics. I love using these kinds of materials weather it be cotton canvas, cotton linen, they just give a lovely look to your project.

This particular fabric has dressmakers mannequins on it which I felt was quite fitting for a jewellery roll. I used a black cotton canvas with white spots on for the inside. The lining (which I haven't shown in photos) is just a white dotty polycotton.

I have used the same black and white dotty cotton canvas for the bias binding around the edge which is a great contrast with the mannequin fabric.

To finish it off I have used a bright red ribbon which ties around the front in a bow and really makes the whole thing pop.

This jewellery roll is available to buy for only £15.99 on my Facebook page www.facebook.com/emibdesigns

The pattern I used to make this is from Debbie Shore's Half yard Home, It is really easy to sew if you have good knowledge on sewing or your not afraid to give anything a go.

I photographed my jewellery roll in front of my new sewing machine which I haven't shown you yet, it is a vintage singer, hand crank sewing machine. It was a birthday gift for my 21st. I am sure I will be doing a blog post all about it soon.

Hope you enjoyed this post and I am going to be doing another blog post later today so stay tuned for that!

Crafters Companion July Projects- Jewellery Roll

For my second July Project I could do a project of my choice. After flicking through my Books I came across the jewellery roll in Debbie Shores Half yard home book.

I had ordered some of the super soft faux leather and thought that it would look great in that! I hadn't got anything in for the lining and wanted something bright and a match both the pink and blue faux leather, so I went to my local fabric shop for that.

I used the zips on a roll to get the perfect length zip that I needed. I also found a lovely piece of blue lace in my stash that looks perfect for the ties.

Once I had finished i felt the roll needed something a little extra so I used my easy crystal for fabric to bling it up!

So here it is I am so pleased with the outcome I ended up using the pink faux leather for the pocket linings I think this will protect the jewellery a little more. I love the little ring toll in the middle too and it isn't as fiddly as you would think to make.
