  1. Step 1

    Step 1

    Cut a rectangle of material.
    Width must be 2 or 3 cm longer then a pencil
    A quarter of the length will be the height of your pencil case.
    Use any material but ones that fray less are a little easier to handle.

  2. Step 2

    Fold the two ends in so they meet in the middle and sew along the two vertical edges. Don't sew the edges that meet in the middle!!
