At one of the blogs I follow, I saw a "block roll" or "block keeper". Well that looked very handy, you can easily take your blocks with you, (without folding them again, again) when you travel around or visit friends/family. So a little search on the WWW and I found a tutorial how to make it. Thanks Teresa from Australia.I made a few changes. I used a plastic plumbing pipe (bought at a DIY shop, for 60 eurocent). For the inside I used fleece. I think the advantage of fleece is that your pieces of fabric stick a little bit to it.
And I made a little pocket to put a few things in, like some thread and little scissor.

So the plastic pipe is at the end, is that right? And then your roll it around the pipe? Very good idea. And I LOVE your winter bird. He is so cute. Vania is happy, no doubt!
