useful and pretty
More See It All Pouches, pattern by Laura Zuckerkuss. I enjoyed making various sizes and using different zips and fabrics. I also used interfacing and different weights of thread.
These bags are so handy with so many possible uses, I use mine for holding blocks and hand sewing projects.
I really love this one with the lace zip and the adorable animal print - Menagerie, Indian Summer by Sarah Watson.
For some of them I used the gold sparkle vinyl again, it's so pretty!
This pencil case was the result of me not concentrating and trimming the zip off a pouch - rendering it rather useless - instead of binning the zip I made a different size pouch. A happy accident!
These will be used as class samples for my autumn teaching schedule.
☑ Along with the teacher's gifts I made, I can check the See It All Pouches off my FAL list!

method ~ le challenge ~ pencil case
Always last minute last night I created a present for my middle daughter to give as a birthday present to her friend.
I decided to use a simple method of appliqué. Quick and easy.
I used my favourite method of straight line quilting using my hera marker to mark some guidelines and the edge of the walking foot to fill in the lines - I have a tutorial for cross hatch quilting here.
I made a pencil case using the Noodlehead tutorial - I've used this many times but still need to check the position of the zip each time (especially when I'm sewing late at night!).
The edges don't look quite as wrinkly in real life and I like the effect of just quilting over the letters.
I'm hoping he will like the pencil case as I don't think there would be many things in the UK with his name printed on them. Zip cases are always a fun and useful make and this method of appliqué was super fast!
