Each needlewoman will tell you that inspiration comes when the mood is excellent and there are beautiful and nice little things around. A box for needlework in the form of a chest or a basket always pleases the eye and helps to preserve all small things. In general, the casket of the needlewoman can tell a lot about her mistress, how careful she is and attentive to the little things. We propose to produce a very original box for needlework with our own hands.
Caskets for needlework: master class
Before making a box for needlework, prepare the following:
- 5 jars (the spools from the big skein of an adhesive tape also will fit);
- fabric (it is better to take a thin cotton cloth with a small pattern);
- braid or lace;
- scissors;
- glue;
- dense cardboard.
Now let's look at the step-by-step instructions on how to make a casket for needlework:
1. To begin with, we cut out a rectangle of height equal to the height of the jar. We glue the outside. Do not forget to leave the allowances for the inward fold.

2. This is how our procurement looks at this stage. So we are working on all the jars.
3. Cut out a cardboard circle the size of the bottom of the jar. We cut another circle from the fabric, but a couple of centimeters more. We glue on the cardboard blank fabric. Now we make incisions around the edge at an angle.
4. Insert the cardboard with a cloth in a jar and lay it on the bottom. Gently glue the edge of the tissue to the inside of the jar.
5. From a fabric of another color, we cut out a rectangle with a width equal to the height of the jar. We glue it to the inner wall.
6. There are five pieces to make such blanks.
7. Next, from the dense sheet of cardboard, cut out two circles. The size of the circle depends on the size of the jars. In this case we take a diameter of 20 cm.
8. In addition to the circles, you must cut a rectangle. Its dimensions also depend on the size of the jars. In our case, the height of the jars is 4 cm, which means that the width of the rectangle will also be 4 cm, length 13 cm.
9. On the fabric cut, we place the workpieces in the following way. Between the parts it is necessary to leave gaps of 5 mm.
10. We circle on the fabric and glue our box for needlework from cardboard.

11. From the fabric with another pattern, we cut out three blanks. Their dimensions should be slightly smaller than the main ones, they will glue the inner part of the box for the needlewoman.
12. Then we put our jars on the finished box. The box for needlework is ready for you.
