Create a Handy Pocket Sewing Kit

DIY POCKET SEWING KIT

You’re already out-maybe at work, runny errands, or meeting friends-

when you notice a loose button or a small tear in your shirt.

In that moment, having a simple DIY Pocket Sewing Kit can feel

like a lifesaver.

There’s nothing worse than being in a hurry and needing a quick fix.

A small sewing kit that fits into a pocket or purse is a great solution.

This small sewing kit was created using the Sizzix Needle Book Die by Eileen Hull*.

If you would like to make the Pocket Sewing Kit, here’s what you’ll need.  

Materials Used:

To make the Sewing Kit:
  1. Die-cut two needle book covers from felt using a Big Shot Die-Cutting machine*.
  2. Hand-cut two simple flowers from pink felt, and stitch them with green felt leaves onto the front cover. Add small buttons to the flower centers.
  3. Cut a 3 ¼” x 4 ¼” piece of pink felt. Stitch a small pocket onto one side for holding small scissors, thread, and needles. Add a decorative button if you like.
  4. Attach the pocket to the inside center of the second needle book cover.
  5. Stitch the two covers together to form the book.
  6. If you want an enclosure, cut and stitch it to the back cover. Add heart grommets to secure the closure.
  7. Fill your finished kit with pins, needles, thread, and tiny scissors.
