Pencil cases for charity

As a special charity project for the McKinney Modern quilt guild, we are making pencil cases, crayon roll ups and matchbox car roll ups for CASA. The kids represented by CASA spend lots of boring time in courthouses and need something fun to do while they wait. At our last meeting, I grabbed 2 kits to make these awesome pencil cases that hold 12 colored pencils and a small pad of paper.

These went together in no time at all, using a great tutorial from Bonnie, our charity chair. I'm sure I'll be making a few more.
A great use for scraps of fabric and batting!

That would be a great charity project for my guild. Any chance of doing a tutorial or link to a pattern! This year we are making totes for foster kids and this would be great to add to those bags. Thanks for sharing!

These are great! I think I need to pitch this idea to my guild, too!
