Today's project

What's pink and black and rolls up when the day is over?
My new handy dandy plier/ file roll up tool kit...that's what.

Made of an upholstery grade printed canvas fabric rem.
Too small for anything else, as it was I needed to make the pockets out of some misc black mystery fabric.
The face of the bag is interfaced with plain white material that got tacked down with iridescent thread (which of course doesn't show in the photo) in abstract swooping patterns.
The black pockets also got interfaced with more white primarily because the fabric was a bit flimsy and had a slight stretch.

There's room for all my pliers, my misc small metal files, and even my wooden wire jig fits (not shown in the photo because I forgot)
Rolls up neatly with the handles also having a handy dandy snap holder closed thingy. Bonus point for anyone else who can also remember when these were on girls purses everywhere.
Yeah, I'm old.
;P
I thought I had left xtra room when I drew up the specs for more pliers, but, turns out I didn't. At least I left enough room for what I do have.
Not bad for a few hours work and some fabric rems. Far better than the wooden wicker basket I had them all stored in, that's for sure.
Bye now!
