 E-textile pencil case kit. This is a class pack of 30 and  is a KS3 textile and electronics project that uses conductive thread and electronic components to create a flashing LED pencil case.  Each kit is packed individually to help the teacher.

The Flower pencil cases are made from felt and adhesive backed felt.  The pencil case uses 2 flashing green LEDs for a visual display. These LEDs can be activated when the zip is closed (Zip acts as a switch turning the LEDs ON/OFF).

Large and small flower stencils are included in the class pack along with full instructions on cutting out all shapes.
