Rainbow roll


I have a small sewing business (Bye Baby Bunting) where I make things to order; most of the things I make seem to begin with the letter 'B'. I have no idea why, it has just happened this way! I mainly make personalised bunting, bags, blankets and bibs. I have also made some other one-off pieces. My most recent commission is for a set of egg-cosies! I'm still working on the pattern for those...


Here is the rainbow pen roll. I'd been toying with the idea of making a pen roll for some time but just wasn't sure on what look I wanted to go for. Eventually I stumbled across this blog post at Chez Beeper Bebe and decided that a rainbow was definitely the way forward! Matching each pen to its own fabric colour pocket seemed a lovely idea. I've seen lots of tutorials for making pen rolls but decided to make my own up. I really disliked the visible seam lines on the outside of the rolls and so I went about mine differently. I shall be posting my own tutorial very soon so will give more details then...

Here's the open roll
...and here it is closed
