Hello Hive friends, today I'm going to show you how I sewed a multicolored pencil case with fabric scraps of various colors. These were leftovers from a shirt I was given to sew; they asked me to cut off the sleeves, and I had the other part of the sleeve left over as material. At first, I didn't know what to do with the scraps, but then I got a commission for a school project, and I was inspired by the patchwork technique.

I started by cutting squares for the sleeves, then I cut out equal squares of each color, and that way I formed a larger square from several squares. Then I arranged them to see the order in which they would be sewn.

Now proceed to sew each square according to the color order. I started with the first row, joining each square until I formed a complete row. Then I went through the second row, and so I sewed each row of squares. Then I sewed each row with the next row until I completed the square.

Then I proceeded to sew on the zipper. I pinned it in place so it wouldn't move, and then I sewed from the front side of the fabric. After that, I sewed the zipper from the other side, and finally, I sewed a seam over the zipper.

Then I just sewed the sides to close the shape of the pencil case, but first I left part of the zipper open so that after sewing I could turn it right side out.
