Zakka along sewing kit

It's week four of the Zakka sew along & this week we made a linen sewing kit! 
The actual sewing of the kit was very easy, but I had the toughest time deciding on which fabric to use! It had to be perfect, & maybe even a precious fabric that I've been reluctant to use.I finally settled on this beautiful linen button print by Suzuko Koseki! How much more perfect can you get for a sewing kit?;)
I like black & white text prints for a neutral base & a little extra fun! I then added a fun yellow polka dot & a great twill measuring tape trim for the ties. 
 It's just the perfect size to hold my hexy making supplies. 
I've noticed some adorable little scissors in a few of the other sewing kits, can someone tell me where I can find a small needlework type scissors? I am in need of one to add to my kit. Thank you!
 All wrapped up & ready to go!
 This was a fun & easy project & I'm already looking forward to the project next week!
