Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Bag-Making Basics: Reversible Tote & Zipper Pouch »

Instructions

First thing I've sewn on my own since 8th-grade Home Ec, a verrrry long time ago. The zipper was easy! These bags will make great gifts.

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Accessory

For: Unisex

Style: Cute, Casual


Materials

Two fat quarters, zipper, interfacing

What was your inspiration?

My mother-in-law, who gave me a sewing machine!

What are you most proud of?

I made it!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Pressing, cutting and interfacing your fabric will take longer than you think. Otherwise, just sew along with Kristin and you'll have a cute bag in no time!

nice work!!!! lovely pouch!! I saw that like me, you also have signed up in numerous classes....I have taken this course (among many many others) but I only have two hands, so one thing at a time...right now I am playing with double knitting..then I most possibly jump to shuttle tatting and....you know how it is...it never ends...I think I am hooked into all kinds of crafting...so, I guess we will be seeing or rather reading each other here quite a lot! See you soon! Have fun!

Thanks! It's a very handy thing to have, and not hard to make. I like the drawstring pouch, too.

It is very easy! I sew a little farther away from the zipper teeth than she does, but the the result still looked good, since the zipper's in a matching color.
