Here is another needlecase I designed. Just decided to draw a sewing machine on solid fabric & use felt{not wool} for the needles, also I didn't sew in the labels just pinned them for now and made xtras for the new owner. I will keep this one since its not 100% wool. I thought this might give someone some ideas.

Very cute! I'm still going back and forth, with mine; can't make up my mind, how I want it to look.

Now that is an organized needlecase, Abd! Love your sewing machine. Thank you and yes it does help set off a whole string of ideas.

About a month ago I was in a LQS talking to the salesperson about the cost of wool. She was telling me that is getting so pricey. I paid about $5 for a 5x7 piece of wool. It really limited what I felt I needed.

Anyone have a good online source where they purchased wool felt at an affordable price? I do look for wool garments at thrift stores but they usually don't come in the array of bright colors that I love.
