I've loved having a tiny notebook and mechanical pencil in my pocket but I wanted easy access to some colors for some fun!

I sketched this up, drafted the pattern, and hand stitched everything together in a couple days. I used plastic from a milk jug for the structure and a lightweight synthetic fabric from my stash. The case weighs in at 10g empty and 32g loaded with 5 pencils, eraser and sharpener.

I'm super happy with the result, though I'm already thinking about the next version!
