Inside use a Sharpie to neatly mark off sections labeled with your most used needle sizes.
If you also sew a couple of slightly overlapped, on the closed end, zipper snack baggies - one facing left open, one facing right open - down the middle of the opened pot holder, and cover that seam with a thin pretty ribbon, you will have a carrying area for thread and scissors, too.

I love this idea! It would be easy to make, you could personalize it to whatever color you like--you could add some applique to it before assembling too--and it would be so very useful! Thank you for this idea, Jan!
