Train Case

Hi Sewing Friends!

Here's a peek at a Christmas gift

for one of my grandchildren

The pattern is by Sew Sweetness

there are three size train case patterns included

This is the medium size

The instructions are pretty straight forward

If you are an intermediate to advanced sewer,

you shouldn't have any difficulty with this one

I used straight-line quilting

to hold the foam between the fabric layers

on the body and top of the case

The back tab that joins the ends of the double pull zipper

allows the lid to be "hinged"

The double pull zippers are available in my Etsy Shop

The inside features a zipper pocket in the lid

and I chose to embroider my grandson's name as well

The embroidery font is from Willow Embroidery Etsy shop

Looking down inside the case,

you can see all the handy little pockets

that line the interior

They're great for those small objects

that might otherwise get lost

There's also plenty of open space to add larger objects

These train cases aren't just for children

In the right fabric, they would be

beautiful gifts for brides/bridesmaids, best friends, or yourself

What a perfect baby shower gift they would be

filled with baby-themed supplies such as

small-size lotion and powder, diapers, burp cloths, etc.

 If yo would like to chat,

I would welcome your comments

Are you sewing any gifts this year?

Have any excellent sewing week
