Earrings Case For Traveling Embroidery Project

Gather the materials and read through the instructions before beginning. Have a copy of the color sequence on hand to refer to.

On one piece of purple felt, measure along the long edge and mark at 6 ¼” and 6 ¾”. The ½” gap, represents the fold section of the case. On the right side of the panel, which will be the front of the case, mark the centre (horizontally and vertically) to indicate the centre of the embroidery design. Stitch out the design

Once stitched out, lay the blank piece of purple felt down, lay the interfacing over this then top with the embroidered panel. The interfacing is slightly smaller than the felt for a reason, it is so it does not show around the edge of the case. Pin all 3 layers together and stitch around using a ¼” allowance. 

Lay both pieces of white felt together, pin all around and stitch together using a ¼” allowance. Measure across the long edge of the white felt and mark halfway at 5 ¾”, draw a vertical line down the width of the white felt.

Now lay the white felt inside the purple case and centre. Pin the white felt to the purple case, along the line you have marked. Stitch it in place, going through all layers. I have chosen to use a snap closure for my case, you could also use a button/elastic closure or 2 pieces of ribbon to tie together. 

Your Earrings travel case is now complete. It is perfect for protecting your earrings whilst you travel.
