After The Storm


Well yesterday ended up being a productive day! I have had this pattern for a few weeks and decided to sit down and put it together.


The most daunting part is putting in a zipper by HAND!


It went in much better than I expected and it is very sturdy.



It's small but very cute and I think I will be making more of these! Be warned there is a lot of hand work involved.


The pattern is called Quilted Notions Pouch by Retro Mama. The directions are very good with plenty of pictures.




I also spent a good part of the day pricing fabric for our guild's silent auction. It was a great way to clean out my  stash!

  1. Thank you for sharing your little zippered bag. It looks awesome. I love how you blended a kaffe fassett fabric with the classic kerchief girl image!! It works so well. Love this. Thanks so much. I just noticed your bright, scrappy style and of course, I had to follow your blog. elanagoldberg5@gmail.com and https://thatfabricfeeling.wordpress.com/

  3. Your little pouch came out great! I was going to tell you about the #notionspouchsal, but when I checked, I saw your bag was already there. I wish I could shop your fabric sale. It looks like you have lots of goodies.

  4. Wow, the little bag is too cute and your stitches are impressive! I can see why you want to make more since the first one turned out so adorable. That's some impressive destashing. The question for me always is, will I bring home more than I leave at those events. It's a struggle!
    Glad the storm is over and that you are warm and safe.
