Learn to sew a Brush Roll




Learn to sew a Brush Roll

This Brush Roll is a fabulous way to store and transport an artist's brushes, a calligrapher's pens, a writer's pencils and so much more. The class will teach beginners some basic sewing techniques as they learn to make the Brush Roll. Once you master the technique, you’ll want to make a Brush Roll for many different uses. 

Only a simple sewing machine is needed (one with a zigzag stitch) and an iron is absolutely necessary. Very little fabric is needed - the student may be able to use up a scrap for this project! The course takes you through the Brush Roll construction, one step at a time. You’ll learn a “no-fail” technique for applying bias binding. Finishing touches are terribly important for a professional look, and we’ll talk about those at the end of this course.

The class may also appeal to more experienced sewers, simply because the project makes such a great gift for creative friends. It's also a good way for schoolchildren to keep their markers and coloured pencils. If a sturdy fabric was chosen, this Brush Roll would  make a good storage roll for screwdrivers or wrenches! Another idea is to make one to carry your knives and forks on your next picnic outing!

This highly versatile project might be just what you need for some of the people on this year’s “Gift List”!
