Home Made Dimple Pick Case- Share Yours too!!

Postby Clay-Miller13 » 22 Sep 2016 18:19

Here is a dimple pick case I sewed together when I couldn't find a commercially available one that I liked. I have plenty of sparrows and peterson cases for my regular picks but as far as dimple picks go, they didn't fit well so I decided to try my hand with the sewing machine. I think it turned out pretty well. What do you think?

After getting this done I decided to see what else I could sew. I guess you could say I got a little carried away. First time on a sewing machine though. If I can do it, anyone can.

Who else out there has some Home made pick cases?

Nice cases

Always good to use a new skill, and if you're serious about that being your 'first' attempt
You're showinmg as much skill with a sewing machine as you do with your picks
Awesome job

A few questions
What material did you use

Looks good. 8)
And you're right: Learning how to use a sewing machine isn't too difficult, but it's a useful skill.
