Tutorial: World’s Fastest Pencil Case

Sherri from Thread Riding Hood shows how you can sew The World’s Fastest Pencil Case. That title might be a bit of an exaggeration, but honestly it IS a super fast, super easy pencil case to make. I don’t know that you’d find a quicker way to make a pencil case with a zipper closure and pull tabs. French seams encase the raw edges and give it a clean finish inside. She was able to make 13 of these in 3 hours, which calculates out to just 18 minutes per pouch. That’s fast!
