  Step 1

  clear your table.
  Start by keeping all the things you will need beside you.

• 

  Step 2

  spread the fabric, how i measured my pencilcase was i placed all the colour pencils about 1 cm away from eachother but 2 cm away from the sides. for 24 colour pencils:
  Height: 8 inches
  Length: 15 inches

  Cut the fabric, if it is uneven its okai, fold the fabric, pin it and then cut the uneven strands it doesnt have to be perefectly straight.

• 

  Step 3

  place one colour pencil over the fabric and check how long u want the holders to be,cut the fabric a bit longer than the length of the pencil case to avoid errors.

• 

  Step 4

  before u start attaching the two fabrics together u need to leave 1 cm for folding from all sides , left, right, bottom.

• 

  Step 5

  i used black embroidey floss to sew them together, once you reach half way through the left side attach a long strip of fabric and sew over it.

• 

  Step 6

  i sewed two places at once , i used black embroidy floss just around the left, right and bottom to keep the fabrics together and orange yarn to make sections. i removed all the pins and added colour pencils to make sections.

• 

  Step 7

  once your done sewing and cutting it should look like this.

• 

  Step 8

  remove color pencils and turn the fabric over..you will start using ribbons now , cut them at any lengths of your choice according to the length and height of your pencil case.
  Play around until you get the design you like.

• 

  Step 9

  Pin the ribbons so they are still and make it easier for u to work,

• 

  Step 10

  Now.. fold and pin
  start sewing, sew as close to edges as possible. if you are using needle and yarn (like i did) make sure u are sewing through the ribbons or else they will stick out, but if you are using sewing machine then your work is much easier.

• 

  Step 11

  when your done it should look ike this, pretty right ?

• 

  Step 12

  Roll your pencilcase and with the fabric strip that you previously attached , mark where it ends so you can attach a button, if your strip is too long, cut to desired length and then attach the button using a glue gun.

• 

  Step 13

  And there you have it !!
