Feelin' Crafty

My pouches from My Paper Crane fabric. 2, originally uploaded by sugar-cookie.

I was feeling crafty recently and made some pouches from some My Paper Crane fabric I ordered. I want to get better at making zippers, so I tried to sew little pouches. One can never have too many pouches.


Here is the first try. As you can see, the zipper did not catch on the corner. My quick fix was to use embroidery floss and sew it up with a tiny red bow accent. Can you tell? I really love this glockenspiel fabric!


Both pouches have a candy striped lining and I made sure to cut it on the bias. I thought it was a nice touch for the interior of the pouches.


I added a cute little matryoshka felt pin of my creation! I thought it looked cute with this matryoshka pattern fabric.


And here is the finished handmade goodie!
