WE SEW A CASE FOR GLASSES MADE OF FELT

Send

If in the family someone wears glasses, often he (or she) forget where they were put. To avoid such complications, I decided to sew a spectacle case of bright red felt for my grandmother.
List of necessary:
1.Red hard felt.
2. Two sheets of felt of different colors (for flowers and sheets).
3. Threads of two colors (in tone of felt).
4. Needles, scissors.

Patterns of flowers and leaves are quite easy to find on the Internet by typing the necessary request. Copy and cut the selected pictures. A very simple flower can be accurately drawn by hand.

The cover itself is sewn elementarily, measurements are taken, a piece of felt is cut twice as wide as necessary. The edges need to be stitched only after the decorative finish has been completed.

You can simplify the task and just stick all the details to the cover, but I wanted to give the work a charm with the help of handmade seams. Therefore, for starters, embroidered on the vein leaves.

Sewn in the center of red flowers.

In total I used 2 flowers, 3 berries, 2 simple leaves and 1 triple. To make such a composition will not be difficult, you just need to evenly distribute the parts over the entire surface of the future eyeglass case. It is advisable only not to place them close to the edges.

Flowers can be left as is, but I like it when the veins on the petals are embroidered.

The composition must be fixed, do it last. First you need to finish the finishing stitches. So the edges of the threads will remain inside the eyeglass case, they will not stick out.

Lastly, she embroidered the stems, previously outlined their contours on felt with a pen.

It remains only to stitch the eyeglass case along the edge, using an overcast seam. Carefully thread the ends of the threads inward, cut. A present from felt for grandmother is ready! All the work takes several hours, if stitching the seams with a machine, then much less.
