Canberra Brown Owls - July Meet Up

Hey Brown Owls!

Gosh it's July already (only one more month of winter to go, YAY!!) and once again all the kids are back at school.  So do you remember back in February we made little needle books to get ourselves organised?  Well, now it's time to add the next  perfect little addition to your craft kit.  Let's make scissor keepers/pouches.  A few ideas you can sew without a machine (of course, if you need to bring along a sewing machine - no problem!)

Of course, feel free to bring along some of your projects - bring along your UFOs, new projects, old projects or even something new.  

Need inspiration?   

How bring and cheerful is this cute scissor pouch from 'Feeling Stitchy'?

And if you have enough time, why not crochet a little Scissor Keeper so you know you'll never mix up your scissors!  (note this one is a paid pattern) xx
