So Miss M loves 2 things right now. Minnie Mouse and coloring. So basically most of her Christmas gifts are kind of based around these 2 things. (and I'll let her color all day long- I love how long she'll sit and focus on it!) So on Black Friday, we bought her some of the Color Wonder packs at Wal-Mart to give her for Christmas. But when I went to wrap them up, I realized that her markers were going to need a little home. So going with the Minnie theme, I made her a Color Wonder marker roll-up!
I followed the tutorial basically found here on Make It and Love It for a crayon roll-up but had to change the measurements. Sadly I didn't calculate the heighth right because look how sad it looks just a little short! But oh well- maybe some day I'll make a new one and turn this one into a crayon roll-up or something. But for now I'm short on patience, fabric, and time since I've still got a few more things I want to finish up before Christmas. It'll have to do for now but I think Miss M will still love it!
Oh and just in case you want to make one for markers too, I'll add my measurements. And remember- mine came out to short (as if you could forget- look how bad that looks!) so I'd definitely add some inches to the height. (all measurements are in inches)
markers were spaced 1 1/2 inches apart
length: 15 + seam allowances
outer fabric heighth: 6 + seam allowances
inner fabric heighth: 3 1/2 + seam allowances
