This is a badge bit (
BB) that is part of the
PEP curriculum. Completing this BB is part of getting the
straw badge in
textiles.
In this
project, you will make a textile toolbox, also known as a sewing kit. This will have all the essential sewing tools at your fingertips and organized. It can be in a tackle box, a cloth organizer, a wooden box, or even a book modified into a kit.
It
should contain at least these things:
