The other night at quilt guild, I did a wee demo on zippy pouches and zippers without zipper feet or pins. I had prepped 3 sets of pouches to demonstrate zipper tabs etc. but the pouches remained unfinished until Saturday when I whizzed them through the sewing machine to completion. I will have to post all my hints, tricks and favourite zippy pouch tutorials another day.
I think they will become door prizes at future meetings. These are totally scrap projects as I used all the little bits leftover from the Robert Kaufman challenge and my string theory mini. And I think I will just have to link up with Leanne for Scraptastic Tuesday. Today is the last day!
I would never want to rub it in but we have had GORGEOUS weather. Sunny and totally t-shirt weather. The crocuses are in full bloom. Just saying. Here's proof. Snowdrops too.
I adore scrappy! And a girl just can't have too many pouches! lol Great job! I love that the corners of your pouches aren't slouchy (for lack of a better word). I keep trying to find a way to make my corners so they look like yours but to no avail. :( Maybe when you share your tips and tricks that will be one of them?
ReplyDeleteLovely pouches and maybe I could do with a lesson on those tips as I always use a zipper foot - thank you for joining us at #scraptastictuesday
ReplyDeleteI always love your pouches I wish I could sew I always have problems.
ReplyDeletegood for you with the good weather I do think there will be egg hunts in the snow this year'

These are lovely! I love the colorful zippers and quilting.
ReplyDeleteI love those pouches. I keep thinking I want to make a bunch of them to have around, in case a birthday comes up and I am not prepared. (well, that would make me prepared then, wouldn't it? :))
ReplyDeleteCharming pouches. Love the dangles you've attached to the zippers. Congratulations.
