The tool roll I sewed yesterday is cool and all, but for day to day use, not especially practical. Unrolling it on my desk takes up quite a bit of room. I briefly kicked around the idea of thumbtacking it to the wall, turning my tool roll into a wall organizer. And then it hit me: I'd basically crafted an apron. If I attached a strap of some sort, I'd be able to *wear* my tools.

I know what you're thinking: this is fun and all, but how practical is this? I mean, a tool belt for office supplies?

Mark my words: tool belts for programmers are so going to catch on!
