Now that we made the pattern let’s have some fun sewing the scissors case.
Choose two fabrics and a thin batting (you can use leftovers) and cut a rectangle of each one. The length is twice the length of the pattern and the width is one inch more than the pattern.

Quilt the tree layers. I usually choose a simple layout for these small crafts.

Cut one of the small edges with a rotary cutter or a sharp fabric scissors. Make a machine zigzag stitch (or some equivalent stitch). This will be the inner edge of the scissors case.

Fold the quilted rectangle as you see in the picture. Put the pattern over it and match the line of the pattern with the stitched edge.

Pin (one or two pins are enough) and cut the straight borders with the rotary cutter and the rounds with a sharp scissor following the pattern. Give 1/8” for seam allowances. I never follow strict rules and this time I did not make a round bottom as I did here.

Fazer uma casa de botão à mão ou à máquina e já está! Fácil não acham?
Take the pattern away and baste with two or three pins to keep the shape in order.
Make the same machine stitch, you made on the edge, all around the scissors case. Make a hand or machine buttonhole. That’s all. Very easy isn’t it?
