Write to It Pencil Case

"Back to school is fun with this pencil-shaped pencil pouch! It's 3-D, so it fits lots of school materials. The zipper tabs and lining make it look more professional. And optional stencil details make it looks just like a classic #2 pencil. And you can personalize it with a name! The best part of all: the pattern is free! This free pattern and tutorial are great for learners as it is part of the Learn to Machine Sew series, with references to technique lessons to complete every step perfectly!"
