Roll with It. It’s time to face your cosmetics clutter. Corral your makeup brushes inside this clever roll-up pouch that has divided pockets to fit narrow and wide brushes. Then roll it up and fasten the tie ends for compact storage.
Materials:
9×22″ piece blue dot (pocket)
9×22″ piece (fat eighth) teal dot (cover)
18×22″ piece (fat quarter) green print (lining, tie, and binding)
8×12-1⁄2″ batting
Water- or air-soluble marking pen
Finished brush roll: 8×12-1⁄2″
Fabrics are 44/45″-wide. Sew with 1⁄4″ seam allowances and right sides together.
Cut the following pieces:
From blue dot, cut:
1—7-1⁄2×12-1⁄2″ pocket rectangle
From teal dot, cut:
1—8×12-1⁄2″ cover rectangle
From green print, cut:
1—8×12-1⁄2″ lining rectangle
2—1-1⁄2×22″ strips for tie
2—2-1⁄2×22″ binding strips
With wrong side inside, fold and press blue dot 7-1⁄2×12-1⁄2″ rectangle in half lengthwise to make a 3-3⁄4×12-1⁄2″ pocket rectangle.
Layer teal dot 8×12-1⁄2″ cover rectangle wrong side up, 8×12-1⁄2″ batting rectangle, green print 8×12-1⁄2″ lining rectangle right side up, and pocket rectangle (Diagram 1). Pin layers together.
Mark stitching lines using a water- or air-soluble marking pen. Quilt layered roll with straight-stitch lines beginning 1-1⁄4″ from a short edge (Diagram 2). Referring to diagram, continue quilting straight lines at 1″- or 2″-wide intervals across surface of roll. Leave 1-1⁄4″ unquilted along opposite short edge.
Join green print 1-1⁄2×22″ strips along one short edge; press seam open. With wrong side inside, fold and press green print 1-1⁄2×43-1⁄2″ strip in half lengthwise. Open strip and press long edges to center fold line. Topstitch 1⁄8″ from folded edges to make tie. Knot each end of tie and trim excess fabric at an angle to prevent raveling.
Fold tie in half. Pin center of tie to lining side of roll, aligning tie with folded top edge of pocket, to complete roll (Diagram 3).
Join short ends of binding strips. Press seam open. Fold in half lengthwise to make 1-1⁄4″ double-fold binding. Aligning raw edges, join binding to brush roll cover using machine, keeping tie ends free from stitching. Turn folded edge of binding to brush roll lining and top-stitch edge of binding.
