How to Sew a Sliding Pencil Case

"I love zipper pouches - they are so useful around the home! I have just added another free pattern to my growing collection for you on my blog and this time it is the rave fave sliding pencil case. It is all star quality but it is actually pretty straightforward to construct. My tutorial and pattern shows you every single step and you will learn to shape the case, put the zipper in and understand how the slider works. These make awesome gifts and use very little fabric - the perfect way to use a beloved last scrap."
