All this talk and teaching of zipper pouches has got me obsessed with making them. They are such a joy to make and produce something so pretty and so useful. What can be better?
This particular flat-bottomed style that Manda and i taught last week is a gem. I love the way the pouch sits so you can open it up and rummage in it nicely.
I also love the way that once you have mastered putting in a zip, you can make the pouch any size you like. Ruby and I made a few diddy ones at the weekend for her hair clips and bobbles...more about those another day.
But I'm particularly keen at the moment on these slightly longer but less deep ones for pencils. They are just big enough for a fair selection of pencils, but not too big that they are all flopping about.
Needless to say they are available in store now, both in Pounds and in Dollars, depending on your penchant ;-)
And tomorrow? Some of those diddy pouches for all those lose, lying about clips and bobbles will be available....

Love them! Especially the race car fabric. How daft that it had never occurred to me how much more sensible zippered purses with flat bottoms are...
They are fantastic!
They are just divine Karen! I'm always looking for ideas for my nephews :) Kx
I had two cushions I just had to finish on Sunday so as yet haven't put my new zippy pouch skills to the test. Once I do tey will take over the world!!!
