Review Of Pentaloons Pen Roll

[effika]

About a week ago I commissioned a custom pen wrap from Pentaloons.

She does amazing, high-quality work. I loved browsing her store to see all the fabric options. She's got an eye for goood fabric combinations!

I had all sorts of demands-- 10 slots, contrasting tie, monogram in the same color as the tie, and which way the herringbone fabric chevrons pointed. She always got back to me quickly, let me know what options were available, checked in to make sure she had what I wanted correct, and showed me multiple combinations that I might like. She was very professional to work with.

She finished my wrap within 24 hours of finalizing details, and it arrived a few days later. I was out of town, so I've had to wait to see it! Everything came out perfectly, just as I described to her.

Here are some photos showcasing her craftsmanship.

Dimensions: 22.5" long by 7" wide (13" wide with flap open). Pockets are approximately 2.75" wide.

Pentaloons is going on my list of preferred vendors. I'll be certain to take a look for storage options as my collection grows, or if I need a gift for a pen friend.

(I am not affiliated in any way withe Pentaloons. I paid for everything myself and am just a very happy customer!)

Thank you for the review! This motivated me to place an order for one of these today.

 

I really like the color combo you chose, and the guest appearance from your cat.

Really nice color combination. Seems like a really well-made product.

I bought my wife a kimono-style wrap from her for Christmas. It's really nice.

 

I'm glad she was able to add the embroidery machine. I wanted a monogram on the one I bought at Christmas, but she regretted to tell me that she didn't have the ability to do it yet.

Thank you! I'm glad a good artisan is getting a little more business. And my cat was very eager to "help" me with the photos.

Thank you! It really is a quality product-- very professional!

It was the monogram that finally sold me on it, actually. I had browsed her shop a few months ago, and finally came back to it when I was ready to buy. I saw she added monograms and knew I wanted to make an order.

I love the name, the play-on-word is very nice

I also bought her one (but I store my hooks in it, not my FP ) , she does great work indeed, the seams are perfect. And the pattern is smart. I'm jealous

I got my sister a Pentaloons wrap for Christmas. She loved it.

I purchased a pentaloons 5 pen wrap brocade with a beautiful design and I love it.

I just bought two of these cases, a stunning purple velvet 6 pen wrap with a satin lining and a custom 10 pen wrap in grey blue tweed with an orange silk lining. When I asked if the silk was colorfast (I have several white pens), Amy soaked the silk and wrapped a white acrylic blank in it overnight! Communication with Amy was great. Most importantly the wraps are beautifully made and the fabrics are gorgeous. They are even prettier in person.

These are really nice. After reading the review and visiting the site, I sent the link to my wife. I told her that I wasn't sure any of the items currently for sale would suit her, but I figured she could see what was available style-wise, and contact the shop owner to see if there was any possibility of a custom item. A short while later, she called in from the other room to thank me for the link and say she'd ordered one of the two-pen purses. So, I guess the items in the shop met with her approval.
