Description
This August's Fob a Month was inspired by the sewing box my bf smallbluemonkey gave me in July while we were on holiday together. It's a handy little box that can carry all I need and fits into my travel bag as well as my handbag. As it has no accessories I decided to make them myself to make the box just that bit more functional for how I would like to use it. Of course I started with the fob and decided to share that in August as part of my Fob a Month project. I also designed a pincushion, a scissor case and a needle book and gave almost all of those patterns as well (there is just the needle book left).The fob is 1 7/8" square, 34 stitches square.
The pincushion is 2" square and 1"high, 36 stitches square.
The scissor case is 3 3/4" square. 68 stitches square.
Fabric: 18ct Aida of 10" x 15" or 7,5" x 20" for the whole project
Colours used: DMC 3347, 3348 and 3827
Beads: matching green seed beads, probably size 11. 2 small crystal bicones

Thanks - I didn't make the box though, that was shop bought

It's really pretty. I'm thinking of organizing my handicraft gear in a like manner, but haven't got to it yet.
Can you give a separate photo of the needle book, inside and outside? I wouldn't copy it, I'm just interested in how the design works.

Thank you 
I can do better than that as I'll be writing the pattern for it soon as it's the last missing part of the "Joining the dots" series I wrote giving the patterns for the other accessories.
