These are some easy crayon rolls I made. I found the idea on the internet and then copied it to make a pencil roll and a marker roll. Here is how I did it.

First, cut out all four pieces of fabric. Fold the fabric in half length ways and iron flat. Next, lay out the flannel piece (this is the lining and gives the roll a little more strenght so it does not did not match the other fabric. Then lay one of the pieces of faric on top of the flannel wrong side down. Then, place the pocket piece on top of that. Make sure all the edges line up. Pin at the ends. Find the midpoint of the pocket at 8 1/4″ (for the crayon roll). With your fabric marker and a straight edge, mark the middle line.then make a line every inch, until all 15 lines have been drawn.The spaces on the ends will be a little wider than inch to allow fro seam allowance. Now stitch down the pocket. On the right side, stitch the elastic onto the roll. Now add the other piece of fabric. The right sides of the fabric should be facing in. Sew together with a 1/4 inch seam. Leave about a 2 inch hole on the short end opposite of the elastic. Flip the roll back to right side out. I then ironed the rolls flat and sewed aroudn the edges. This sewed shut the whole without having to do it by hand. Put in the crayons in and roll up the roll and see where the button should be placed.

Our Wedding

Wow! It makes me sad that I haven't blogged for over a year! So much has happened in the last year. Garett and I got engaged in September and married in March! Looking back at it I wish I would have blogged during this fun time. Planning the wedding was a blast and I loved everything about the wedding. I wish I would have kept a record of everything and the process of the planning and preparing. It was such a magical day.
