Another addition for dare I say it...?

 Yes, here's another item that's heading for the Christmas box.  It's the Agnes Divided Pouch found HERE.  I know it's a 'pay' pattern but I thought it was nice enough to warrant it.  There might be more if my stash yields any appropriate fabrics that marry up with the zippers I have on hand.  I won't be buying fabric for these which will offset the price for the pattern itself.


It's hard to tell from this photo (go to the link to see more details) but there are pockets on the outside of the pouch as well as some inside.

- I thought THIS was pretty, depending on the fabric you use.

- THIS would be cute to make for spring.

- There's some good information HERE for quilters.

- THIS made me smile!

- THIS is an easy project that most anybody can do.

Today's quote...

    1. I love sewing things so this was something I enjoyed making. It's a nice little pouch that will be a good gift for someone, particularly if I fill it with a few little things.

  2. Back to say how much I liked that Etchings tulip pattern though thoughts of spring are sparse here this morning with 37 cm of snow on the ground!

    1. I know about the snow and how it's never-ending this year. The tulips made me think of spring even though I know it's a long way off.

    1. Thank you Julierose! It was a fun little pouch to make and I suspect I might make more, depending on the supply of zippers I have in my stash.
      Sorry about the winds - sometimes that can be really scary.

  4. Cool ideas as usual! It's nice to upcycle cardboard and other boxes with decorative papers, fabric, etc. But best to avoid spray glue, dangerous stuff, and you'll inhale the propellant unless you use a respirator, very unlikely! Regular white glue painted on and smoothed tight works with fabric or paper. Old safety conscious art teacher speaks!

    1. Good point! I very rarely use spray glue and if I do it's always outside.

  6. What a lovely pouch and a great addition to the Christmas box. You are really getting ahead.
    I hope your snow stops soon and our freezing Siberia temperatures moderate very soon.

    God bless.

    1. Yes, I'd be more than happy to see the backside of the snow but no more than you to see the end of your deepfreeze!

  7. That's a lot of pockets for one little pouch.
    On the check list for Day Worth Living,
    Need a sun lamp. Too many no sun days outside during winter.

    1. Yes, I agree that it is a lot of pockets (and I left one divider out as it was). If/when I make it again I will put less pockets on the inside.
      I have a sun lamp and use it every day in the winter months. Not sure that it really helps with dealing with depression but I figure it can't hurt.
