Embroidery needle case

[don in brooklin on]

My SIL sent me a picture of a case that one of her friends had with the quotation -- "Interesting".  That is a hint hint.  The one she showed me was done by a laser so I redesigned for the scroll saw.  The sewing machine is from Steve Goods picture. 

Size is 3 3/4 by 2 3/4.  4 layers 1/8 BB. Swivels on magnets to open.

Don, that is a great design. So did you use magnets on both pieces or steel on one piece and a magnet on the other?  That looks like a great Christmas gift for my sewing friends....Thank you so much for sharing!

I used 2 pairs in each opposite corners. If I do again I will only use one pair and a dowel in the other as a pivot

I got the polarity different in each corner so it will only fits one way. Sticks one way but not the other.

Wow that is so cool and such a good design. Sadly, the only person I know who does embroidery uses a machine. Great job!

I am sure that will get plenty of use.  You did an excellent job.
