I bought some ties and I made one, I'm working on my second for a friend. But I don't understand something. I used the picture as my guide, And memory, of awhile back. I made a sm-pocket for the seam ripper, a pocket with sm elastic-for the thread, I made a small pocket with ribbon attached at the top of the pocket, for the sm-sissors to be attached to, and I made a small little pin cushion, with a sm ornate button to mark it's location. So I would'nt stick myself . Dose that sound right? Or am I missing something? Please help me ladies. Thanks

Hi Becky:
It sounds like you thought of everything! Your Chatelaine sounds very well "pouched" for a working quilter. Good job! Make sure and take some pictures of it for all of us to ooh and aah over!
Happy New Year one and all,
Randy

Length of the Chaterlaine: 41 inches long (white) 42 1/2 Inches (blk/red)
Width of the Chaterlaine: 3 1/2 Inches wide at the bottom (White)
2 1/2 Inches wide at bottom (Blk/Red)
2 1/2 In. wide where it rides around neck(wh)
1 3/4 Inches wide around neck (Blk/Red
Chatterlaine has a small pin cushion (blue on white/green on blk/red)
Chatterlaine has a mall Pouch on inside of LEFT side of chatterlaine for a
spool of tread or ??
Chatterlaine also has a small pouch on the OUTSIDE LEFT for notions - pouch is Orange on the Blk/Red Chatterlaine.
On the top of each pouch (the opening) I put a piece of thin elastic in to make the opening pucker a little bit so whatever is carried in the pouch can't fall out. You will note that the pouches also have a bottom which is about a 3/4 circle attached to the rectangular piece of fabric used to make the pouch...I hope these instructions are clear???
Small ring attached to RIGHT side of Chatterlaine and a pair of tiny scissors are attached.
When making these, I found that if I put a piece of velcro just above the bottom of the chatterlaine on each side I could clasp the two ends together so I didn't keep "losing them" off my neck.
I used bias tape around the edges of the chatterlaine. They make great little gifts and are fun to make.
