StitchInTime’s entryThis is a fold out tray that zips up into a box shape which I made to keep my hand sewing patchwork bits and pieces next to me when sewing on the sofa.

It is based on the free
Zola Pen Case pattern, but I shorten it by an inch to make it less like a pencil case. I also omitted the snap on the end of the zip and just sewed the zip to the base to make the handle.

I did try it with a bound zip as per the instructions, but I didn’t like the contrast fabric and zip I initially chose, so I replaced them with a lace zip which I much prefer.
